🚨 Fresh off the press in #RSE: D. Klehr's first #PhD chapter 🎉 presents a new approach to surpass classification of tree species for large areas 🛰️🌳🌲. We pair #Sentinel2 #EarthObservation with #ANN #AI models to predict sub-pixel tree species! #OpenAccess: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Excited to share that my 3rd PhD paper was recently published in Ecological Informatics! We investigated the use of multi-source remote sensing to constrain model estimates of boreal Gross Primary Productivity, providing insights into complex productivity drivers across boreal land cover types.

Over 39-yr period, average annual increase in treed area of 0.19%, or 632,655 ha/year, for total increase of 24.04 Mha (7.2%).📈🍁🌲 @txominhermos.bsky.social et al.

If you're using the `lidR` package and looking to expand your point cloud analysis capabilities, the **lidRmetrics** package might be worth exploring. It offers a variety of additional metrics designed to provide a more detailed characterization of forest structure ptompalski.github.io/lidRmetrics/

2024 mid-summer image composite of Canada's forests. Updating compositing methods and data sources. Now using #opendata from Harmonized #Landsat #Sentinel2 (HLS). Data is key input to National Terrestrial Ecosystem Monitoring System (#NTEMS). 30 metre products. 🖥️ opendata.nfis.org/mapserver/nf...

We are hiring! We're looking to fill a PostDoc position on social-ecological systems. Are you excited about the spatio-temporal dynamics of coupled human and natural mountain systems? Then come join us, and work in a wonderful & diverse team + beautiful environment! www.lss.ls.tum.de/fileadmin/w0...
