Forest fragmentation impacts the seasonality of Amazonian evergreen canopies

Matheus Henrique Nunes et al.

Summary: The magnitude and timing of leaf phenology in Amazonian forests are controversial. This study shows that plant phenology varies across vertical strata, but is sensitive to disturbances from forest fragmentation. Edge effects have a strong influence on phenological controls in wet forests of Central Amazonia.

Near-real time deforestation detection in the Brazilian Amazon with Sentinel-1 and neural networks

Claudia Arantes Silva et al.

Summary: The study utilized a Neural Network algorithm on Sentinel-1 images to identify clear-cut deforested areas in the Brazilian Amazon, revealing the inefficiency of optical-based near-real time deforestation alert systems during the rainy season. A Multi-Layer Perceptron network was used to detect forest disturbances larger than 2 hectares, with the NN algorithm using the best performance with alternative parameters for detection.

Combining Sentinel-1 and Landsat 8 Does Not Improve Classification Accuracy of Tropical Selective Logging

Matthew G. Hethcoat et al.

Summary: Tropical forests are important for carbon and hydrological cycles, biodiversity, climate change mitigation, and the global economy. However, rapid population growth has led to degradation of these forests. The UN's REDD+ program aims to address this, but effective monitoring systems for forest degradation are still needed.

Dynamic detection of offshore wind turbines by spatial machine learning from spaceborne synthetic aperture radar imagery

Zhihuo Xu et al.

Summary: This paper proposes an effective approach for dynamic detection of offshore wind turbines by machine learning from spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite data. The approach includes preprocessing radar images, selecting representative data for training, and utilizing mathematical morphology-based time series spatial data differentiation for monitoring wind turbine changes. The proposed approach demonstrates high accuracy and has the potential for global dynamic detection of offshore wind turbines.

Improving Deforestation Detection on Tropical Rainforests Using Sentinel-1 Data and Convolutional Neural Networks

Mabel Ortega Adarme et al.

Summary: Detecting early deforestation is crucial for reducing forest degradation and carbon emissions. Optical imagery-based monitoring projects are commonly used, but they are limited by cloud coverage, especially in tropical environments. This study evaluated and compared a traditional time series-based method and a Fully Convolutional Network (FCN) with bi-temporal Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images. The results showed that the DL approach outperformed the time series-based method in detecting deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon.

Global maps of twenty-first century forest carbon fluxes

Nancy L. Harris et al.

Summary: Global forests have been a net carbon sink over the past two decades, with an estimated annual net carbon uptake ranging from -7.6 +/- 49 GtCO(2)e. The study integrates ground and Earth observation data to map forest-related greenhouse gas emissions and removals globally, aiming to support the development of climate policies. This geospatial monitoring framework introduced in the research aims to promote consistency and transparency in climate policy development.

Comparative Analysis of the Global Forest/Non-Forest Maps Derived from SAR and Optical Sensors. Case Studies from Brazilian Amazon and Cerrado Biomes

Edson E. Sano et al.

Summary: Comparing forest maps derived from optical and SAR data in the Amazon and Cerrado biomes, the study found statistically significant differences between optical and SAR-derived forest maps, except for the Cerrado biome where the estimations were similar. Additionally, the percentage of pixels classified as forest by both SAR sensors were above 80%, indicating a good overall agreement in forest classification.

Refined algorithm for forest early warning system with ALOS-2/PALSAR-2 ScanSAR data in tropical forest regions

Manabu Watanabe et al.

Summary: The study presents an automatic change detection method for forest monitoring in tropical regions, utilizing radar technology to detect different deforestation stages and enhancing detection accuracy with multi-temporal data and normalization techniques. The results show the algorithm's effectiveness in providing forest change information in near real-time, with accuracies depending on temporal sequences and types of land cover transitions.

Continuous Detection of Forest Loss in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia Using Sentinel-1 Data

Stephane Mermoz et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the accuracy and timeliness of a new operational system in detecting forest loss at a large scale, using Sentinel-1 data and a forest loss detection method based on shadow detection. High accuracy was achieved in detecting forest disturbances and intact forest areas. The study highlights the inefficiency in protecting and conserving natural resources in protected areas, with about half of forest disturbances in Cambodia occurring in these areas. The method also provides reliable detections that can be used to calculate weekly, monthly, or annual forest loss statistics at a national scale, with results comparable to those from Global Forest Watch.

Amazonia as a carbon source linked to deforestation and climate change

Luciana Gatti et al.

Summary: Studies show that total carbon emissions are higher in eastern Amazonia compared to the western part, mainly due to fire emissions. Climate change and deforestation have led to increased ecosystem stress, more frequent fires, and higher carbon emissions in eastern Amazon.
