This project aims to monitor and assess the structure and biomass of tropical forests using high-resolution optical remote sensing data. It investigates the relationships between canopy texture and forest dynamics, contributing to understanding carbon cycles and improving large-scale forest monitoring.
The assessment and monitoring of tropical forest structure and biomass is becoming an important economic and political stake of this century, notably because of the importance of this ecosystem in the carbon cycle.
Recent progress may open the way to the large scale monitoring of tropical forests, thanks to VHR optical remote sensing data.
We demonstrated the feasibility of a textural characterization of the canopy at the scale of the Amazon basin.
Local tests in French Guiana showed that canopy…
