Estimation of Forest Topsoil Properties Using Airborne LiDAR-Derived Intensity and Topographic Factors

Forest topsoil supports vegetation growth and contains the majority of soil nutrients that are important indices of soil fertility and quality. Therefore, estimating forest topsoil properties, such as soil organic matter (SOM), total nitrogen (Total N), pH, litter-organic (O-A) horizon depth (Depth)...
