Annual Detection of Forest Cover Loss Using Time Series Satellite Measurements of Percent Tree Cover
We introduce and test a new method to detect annual forest cover loss from time series estimates of percent tree cover. Our approach is founded on two realistic assumptions: (1) land cover disturbances are rare events over large geographic areas that occur within a short time frame; and (2) spatially discrete land cover disturbances are continuous processes over time. Applying statistically rig...
متن کاملUse of Intra-annual Satellite Imagery Time-series for Land Cover Characterisation Purpose
Automatic image classification often fails at separating a large number of land cover classes that punctually may present similar spectral reflectances. To improve the classification accuracy in such situations, multi-temporal satellite data has proven to be valuable auxiliary information. In this paper, we present a study exploring the usefulness of intra-annual satellite images timeseries for...
متن کاملEstimation of vegetation cover resilience from satellite time series
Resilience is a fundamental concept for understanding vegetation as a dynamic component of the climate system. It expresses the ability of ecosystems to tolerate disturbances and to recover their initial state. Recovery times are basic parameters of the vegetation’s response to forcing and, therefore, are essential for describing realistic 5 vegetation within dynamical models. Healthy vegetatio...
متن کاملMulti-period monitoring and prediction of forest cover loss using logistic regression model in Arasbaran catchments
Knowledge and understanding of changes in forest cover in relation to environmental factors (topography) can be valuable in terms of conservational and protective guidances. The purpose of this study was to identify, quantify and predict deforestation in relation to topographic variables using logistic regression model. The Arasbaran catchments (Naposhtehchay, Ilginehchay and Mardanqumchay) in ...
