Calibration and Validation of Landsat Tree Cover in the Taiga−Tundra Ecotone

Calibration and Validation of Landsat Tree Cover in the Taiga−Tundra Ecotone

Monitoring current forest characteristics in the taiga−tundra ecotone (TTE) at multiple scales is critical for understanding its vulnerability to structural changes. A 30 m spatial resolution Landsat-based tree canopy cover map has been calibrated and validated in the TTE with reference tree cover d...
