Uncertainties in mapping forest carbon in urban ecosystems

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT, 187, 229–238.

By: G. Chen *, E. Ozelkan *, K. Singh n, J. Zhou *, M. Brown* & R. Meentemeyer n 

author keywords: Urban forest; Carbon mapping; Uncertainty analysis; Remote sensing resolution; Neighborhood pattern
MeSH headings : Carbon / analysis; Cities; Forests; Geography; North Carolina; Remote Sensing Technology / methods; Reproducibility of Results; Residence Characteristics; Trees / physiology; Uncertainty
TL;DR: It is found that changing remote sensing data resolution introduced noticeable uncertainties (variation) in forest carbon estimation at the neighborhood level, and for both LiDAR and NAIP, urban neighborhoods with a higher degree of anthropogenic disturbance unveiled a higher level of uncertainty in carbon mapping.

When Big Data are Too Much: Effects of LiDAR Returns and Point Density on Estimation of Forest Biomass

IEEE JOURNAL OF SELECTED TOPICS IN APPLIED EARTH OBSERVATIONS AND REMOTE SENSING, 9(7), 3210–3218.

By: K. Singh n, G. Chen *, J. Vogler n  & R. Meentemeyer  n

author keywords: Aboveground biomass; data reduction; large-area assessments; light detection and ranging (LiDAR); multiple linear regression (MLR); point density and returns; urban forest
TL;DR: Examination of the combined effects of LiDAR returns and data reduction on field-measured estimates of aboveground forest biomass in deciduous and mixed evergreen forests in an urbanized region of North Carolina, USA suggests thatLiDAR first returns at reduced point density provide sufficient data for mapping urban forest biomass and may be an effective alternative to multireturn data.
