Rainfall partitioning in relation to forest structure in differently managed montane forest stands in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia
Management activities alter the structure of many tropical forest stands which can be expected to influence the magnitude of canopy water fluxes. The objectives of this study were to determine throughfall, stemflow and rainfall interception in differently managed forest stands, and to relate the observed pattern of rainfall partitioning to stand structural characteristics. The study was conduct...
متن کاملMapping Deforestation and Land Cover Conversion at the Rainforest Margin in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia
The tropical rain forests in Indonesia are affected by socio-economic and ecological factors and processes that result in an increasing destabilisation of the rainforest margins. Optical satellite data have been explored to document changes in land cover throughout the past 30 years and to monitor the current status and dynamics of land cover and land cover conversion for an investigation area ...
متن کاملEvaluation of remote sensing indicators in drought monitoring using machine learning algorithms (Case study: Marivan city)
Remote sensing indices are used to analyze the Spatio-temporal distribution of drought conditions and to identify the severity of drought. This study, using various drought indices generated from Madis and TRMM satellite data extracted from Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform. Drought conditions in Marivan city from February to November for the years 2001 to 2017 were analyzed based on spatial a...
متن کاملRegional-Scale Variation in Litter Production and Seasonality in Tropical Dry Forests of Southern Mexico
Highly seasonal rainfall creates a pulse of litterfall in the southern Yucatan peninsula region, with cascading effects on the timing of essential nutrient fluxes, microbial dynamics, and vegetation growth. I investigated whether forest age or a regional environmental gradient related to rainfall has a greater effect on patterns of litterfall in this increasingly human-dominated landscape. Litt...
متن کاملTerrasar-x Based Assessment of Canopy Structure along a Land Use Intensity Gradient in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia
The present study investigates the relations between statistical measures of TerraSAR-X backscatter coefficients and field inventory measures for tropical agroforestry systems in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. The background of the study is to evaluate the potential of spaceborne SAR missions for the spatially explicit estimation of horizontal and vertical structure elements of land use systems i...
