讲座题目：Remote sensing of forests: Spatial-temporal dynamics of forest area and biomass at large scales
主 讲 人：萧向明（教授）
主 持 人：夏建阳（教授）
开始时间：2019年11月21日（周四）上午10:00
讲座地址：资环楼148室
主办单位：生态与环境科学学院、科技处
报告人简介：
Dr. Xiangming Xiao is a Professor in the Departments of Microbiology and Plant Biology and director of the Center for Earth Observation and Modeling and Deputy Director of the Center for Spatial Analysis. He has been editor for a number of journals, such as Ecological Applications and EcoHealth Journal. He is mainly engaged in land cover and land use change, ecosystem service assessment, biogeochemistry of terrestrial ecosystems, ecosystem modeling at large spatial scales, integrated impact assessment of climate change, ecology and epidemiology of infectious diseases. He has authored more than 200 publications, with total citations of >15000, and H-index of 65. Most of his recent works have published in top journals such as Nature Sustainability, PNAS, Global Change Biology and Remote Sensing of Environment as first or corresponding author.
报告内容简介:
Forests are an important natural resource and provide ecosystem goods and services to our society. This seminar will discuss two related topics. One topic is about the progress in estimating forest areas from satellite-based remote sensing and the uncertainty of available forest area data products. The other topic is about the progress in quantifying the relationships between forest area and vegetation aboveground biomass in the subtropical and tropical regions, using satellite-based remote sensing data. It will highlight the results from several recent papers published in Nature Sustainability, Nature Plants and Nature Communications journals.
