Aboveground Forest Biomass Estimation with Landsat and LiDAR Data and Uncertainty Analysis of the Estimates

Dengsheng Lu, +7 more
- 04 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: Li et al. as mentioned in this paper provided a brief overview of current forest biomass estimation methods using both Landsat Thematic mapper (TM) image and LiDAR data, and demonstrated that Landsat TM data can provide adequate biomass estimates for secondary succession but are not suitable for mature forest biomass estimates due to data saturation problems.
