Annual Detection of Forest Cover Loss Using Time Series Satellite Measurements of Percent Tree Cover
We introduce and test a new method to detect annual forest cover loss from time series estimates of percent tree cover. Our approach is founded on two realistic assumptions: (1) land cover disturbances are rare events over large geographic areas that occur within a short time frame; and (2) spatiall...
