Regional uniqueness of tree species composition and response to forest loss and climate change

Devis Tuia, Nina Marion Aurélia Van Tiel

The conservation and restoration of forest ecosystems require detailed knowledge of the native plant compositions. Here, we map global forest tree composition and assess the impacts of historical forest cover loss and climate change on trees. The global oc ...

Semi-Supervised Deep Learning Representations in Earth Observation Based Forest Management

Devis Tuia, Marc Conrad Russwurm, Lloyd Haydn Hughes

In this study, we examine the potential of several self-supervised deep learning models in predicting forest attributes and detecting forest changes using ESA Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 images. The performance of the proposed deep learning models is compare ...

Combined use of airborne laser scanning and hyperspectral imaging for forest inventories

Matthew Josef Parkan

The thesis presented hereby proposes as a general objective the estimation of forest inventory parameters (e.g. trunk location, height, basal area, crown area, species, etc..) from the combination of Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) and Hyperspectal Imaging ( ...

The search for old-growth forests in Switzerland

Rita Bütler Sauvain

Old-growth forests and stands have multiple values, such as biological, scientific, socioeconomic, aesthetic, spiritual and cultural ones, but they are very rare in central Europe. Currently, an overview about the existence and size of old-growth forest pa ...

Biodiversity Mapping in a Tropical West African Forest with Airborne Hyperspectral Data

Tropical forests are major repositories of biodiversity, but are fast disappearing as land is converted to agriculture. Decision-makers need to know which of the remaining forests to prioritize for conservation, but the only spatial information on forest b ...

A Contextual Analysis of Land-Use and Vegetation Changes in Two Wooded Pastures in the Swiss Jura Mountains

Alexandre Buttler, François Gillet, Joël Chételat, Alexander Ludwig Johannes Peringer, Thomas Spiegelberger, Michaël Kalbermatten, Kathryn Lannas

This study examines the effects of land-use policies and natural events on the evolution of two wooded pastures in the Jura Mountains in Switzerland between 1934 and 2000. The socioeconomic context and the local conditions were seen as major driving forces ...

Comparaison des caractéristiques climatiques sous couvert forestier et hors couvert : potentiel bioclimatique de la forêt pour le bien-être humain

Valentine Renaud

We compared open-site and below-canopy climatic conditions from 14 different sites in Switzerland based on LWF data (Long-term Forest Ecosystem Research). The 14 sites represent different locations, orientations and elevations, from the Jura Mountains to t ...

GIS modelling of forest wood residues potential for energy use based on forest inventory data: Methodological approach and case study application

Edgard Gnansounou, Luis Alberto Panichelli

This paper presents an approach to perform geo-referenced estimations of forest wood residues availability for energy use based on forest inventory data integration into a GIS. Three different estimation methods are described. The first one evaluates bioma ...

Semi-automatic Use of High Resolution Images and Digital Elevation Models for Counting and Identification of Forest Trees

Claudio Magalhaes Carneiro

This paper presents a semi-automatic and systematic computational approach intending to count and localize different species of trees in zones of dense forest. Comparative analysis of the application of multi-spectral high resolution images and aerial LIDA ...
