Characterizing Tree Spatial Distribution Patterns Using Discrete Aerial Lidar Data

Tree spatial distribution patterns such as random, regular, and clustered play a crucial role in numerical simulations of carbon and water cycles and energy exchanges between forest ecosystems and the atmosphere. An efficient approach is needed to characterize tree spatial distribution patterns quan...
