Improvement of Remote Sensing-Based Assessment of Defoliation of <i>Pinus</i> spp. Caused by <i>Thaumetopoea pityocampa</i> Denis and Schiffermüller and Related Environmental Drivers in Southeastern Spain

Improvement of Remote Sensing-Based Assessment of Defoliation of <i>Pinus</i> spp. Caused by <i>Thaumetopoea pityocampa</i> Denis and Schiffermüller and Related Environmental Drivers in Southeastern Spain

This study used Landsat temporal series to describe defoliation levels due to the Pine Processionary Moth (PPM) in <i>Pinus</i> forests of southeastern Andalusia (Spain), utilizing Google Earth Engine. A combination of remotely sensed data and field survey data was used to detect the def...
