Biases in estimated vegetation indices from observations under cloudy conditions Open
Field observations of vegetation indices (VIs) are derived from ratios of spectral reflectance data that are collected by drones and aircraft, providing higher spatial resolution than satellites. These reflectance data require periodic ref…

Assessing forest properties with data-driven vegetation indices: insights from 900,000 forest stands Open
Vegetation indices (VIs) are widely used to assess forest properties, but deriving VIs for attributes not mechanistically linked to forests’ solar reflectance is challenging. Here, data-driven VIs could help, which yield information based …

From Simulation to Sustainability: Using Forest Growth Models for Indicator-Based Bioeconomy Monitoring Open
The transition from a fossil-based economy to a bioeconomy (BE) is crucial for sustainable production and consumption. Yet, growing demand for bio-based resources challenges sustainability, underscoring the need for indicator-based monitor…

The Global Canopy Atlas: analysis-ready maps of 3D structure for the world’s woody ecosystems Open
Woody canopies regulate exchanges of energy, water and carbon, and their three-dimensional (3D) structure supports much of terrestrial biodiversity. Remote sensing technologies such as airborne laser scanning (ALS) now enable the 3D mappin…

Geometric and demographic effects explain contrasting fragmentation‐biodiversity relationships across scales Open
There is consensus that habitat loss is a major driver of biodiversity loss, while the effects of fragmentation, given a constant total habitat amount, are still debated. Here, we use a process‐based metacommunity model to show how scale‐ …

Edge Effects in Amazon Forests: Integrating Remote Sensing and Modelling to Assess Changes in Biomass and Productivity Open
The tropical forests in the Amazon store large amounts of carbon and are still considered a carbon sink. There is evidence that deforestation can turn a forest landscape into a carbon source due to land use and forest degradation. Deforest…
