Mapping forest fuels through vegetation phenology: the role of coarse-resolution satellite time-series.

Traditionally fuel maps are built in terms of 'fuel types', thus considering the structural characteristics of vegetation only. The aim of this work is to derive a phenological fuel map based on the functional attributes of coarse-scale vegetation phenology, such as seasonality and product...
