Estimating Tree Volume Distributions in Subtropical Forests Using Airborne LiDAR Data

Estimating Tree Volume Distributions in Subtropical Forests Using Airborne LiDAR Data

Accurate and reliable information on tree volume distributions, which describe tree frequencies in volume classes, plays a key role in guiding timber harvest, managing carbon budgets, and supplying ecosystem services. Airborne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) has the capability of offering reliab...
