Measuring Vegetation Heights and Their Seasonal Changes in the Western Namibian Savanna Using Spaceborne Lidars

Abstract: The Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) with its land and vegetation height data product (ATL08), and Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) with its terrain elevation and height metrics data product (GEDI Level 2A) missions have great potential to globally map ground and canopy heights. Canopy height is a key factor in estimating above-ground biomass and its seasonal changes; these satellite missions can also improve estimated above-ground carbon stocks. This study presents a novel S… Show more

“…We extracted the laser point data for Chongqing City for the entire year of 2020, totaling 74,972 control points. Previous studies [48,49] have indicated that ATLAS photon data may be influenced by various factors such as slope, cloud cover, and imaging time. These factors can lead to a reduction in photon energy and introduce errors in distance measurements.…”
