topics (OpenAlex): Remote Sensing and LiDAR Applications; Land Use and Ecosystem Services; Forest ecology and management
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.
