Aboveground Biomass and Carbon Stock Estimation Using UAV Photogrammetry in Indonesian Mangroves and Other Competing Land Uses
Dr. Elham Sumarga and his colleagues report a novel application using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to estimate and compare aboveground biomass (AGB) carbon stocks of mangrove forests with two alternate replacement commercial land uses (oil palm and coconut plantations) in Lubuk Kertang and Pulau Sembilan, North Sumatra, Indonesia. They generated high-accuracy digital surface models (DSMs) […]
