Straightforward model-based approach using only field data and open-source maps to improve carbon stock estimates for REDD + projects.
Scientific reports 20260128 1
Accurate estimation of forest biomass at property-level finds diverse applications, being particularly important for REDD + projects (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation). This study presents a straightforward method for improving carbon stock estimates by integrating geolocated field plot data with open-source large-scale maps. We evaluated the performance of simple predictive models using spatial coordinates and global maps as covariates. Our results demonstrate that e ...[more]
