Improvement of Remote Sensing-Based Assessment of Defoliation of Pinus spp. Caused by Thaumetopoea pityocampa Denis and Schiffermüller and Related Environmental Drivers in Southeastern Spain
(MDPI, 2019)
This study used Landsat temporal series to describe defoliation levels due to the Pine Processionary Moth (PPM) in Pinus forests of southeastern Andalusia (Spain), utilizing Google Earth Engine. A combination of remotely ...
Airborne Laser Scanning Cartography of On-Site Carbon Stocks as a Basis for the Silviculture of Pinus Halepensis Plantations
(MDPI, 2018)
Forest managers are interested in forest-monitoring strategies using low density Airborne
Laser Scanning (ALS). However, little research has used ALS to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC) as a
criterion for operational ...
Assessment of the Carbon Stock in Pine Plantations in Southern Spain through ALS Data and K-Nearest Neighbor Algorithm Based Models
(MDPI, 2019)
Accurate estimation of forest biomass to enable the mapping of forest C stocks over large areas is of considerable interest nowadays. Airborne laser scanning (ALS) systems bring a new perspective to forest inventories and ...
Cumulative Drought Stress Leads to a Loss of Growth Resilience and Explains Higher Mortality in Planted than in Naturally Regenerated Pinus pinaster Stands
(MDPI, 2018)
The assessment of the long-term impacts of drought on tree growth decline using tree-ring
analyses may be used to test if plantations are more vulnerable to warming after successive
droughts, leading to a “cumulative ...
Is thinning an alternative when trees could die in response to drought? The case of planted Pinus nigra and P. Sylvestris stands in southern Spain
(Elsevier, 2019)
Previous research has provided insights into the potential response of growth and water use efficiency to thinning in Mediterranean forests, but little is known about the potential benefits of silviculture for plantations ...
Growth and physiological sapling responses of eleven Quercus ilex ecotypes under identical environmental conditions
(Elsevier, 2018)
Studies with holm oak indicate that genetic variation may result in substantial differences in drought tolerance among its ecotypes. However, few trials have studied this variation under common environmental conditions. ...
