Remote sensing and GIS are increasingly used as tools for monitoring and managing forests. Remotely sensed and GIS data are now the data sources of choice for capturing, documenting, and understanding forest disturbance and landscape pattern. Sitting astride the fields of ecology, forestry, and remote sensing/GIS, Understanding Forest Disturbanc

"Geographic Information Systems are essential technologies for natural resource management. - Geographic Information Systems: Applications in Natural Resource Management is a comprehensive guide and introduces the GIS tools, techniques, and principles necessary for GIS professionals throughout the world. - "Part one provides an overview of the field, from its historical development and basic principles to some common pitfalls and how to avoid them. - Part two explains in detail the essential GIS operations (querying, buffering, clipping, overlay analysis, etc.). Finally, part three discusses current trends and future challenges. - Every chapter includes extensive application questions, and throughout the book 'In Depth' feature boxes encourage readers to delve deeper into key issues and advanced techniques. - A companion website provides sets of GIS data that readers can use to practice the techniques they have learned."--Jacket.

This book presents the state-of-the-art of forest resources assessments and monitoring. It provides links to practical applications of forest and natural resource assessment programs. It offers an overview of current forest inventory systems and discusses forest mensuration, sampling techniques, remote sensing applications, geographic and forest information systems, and multi-resource forest inventory. Attention is also given to the quantification of non-wood goods and services.

Geographic Information System Skills for Foresters and Natural Resource Managers provides a resource for developing knowledge and skills concerning GIS as it applies to forestry and natural resource management. This book helps readers understand how GIS can effectively be used by professional foresters and land managers to conduct spatial analyses or address management decisions. Through topics presented, readers will improve their ability to understand GIS data sources, identify GIS data types and quality, perform common spatial analysis processes, create GIS data, produce maps, and ultimately develop the skills necessary to use GIS analysis to answer real-world questions. This book will be of great benefit to GIS users looking to directly apply techniques to real-world data or foresters and natural resource scientists who use GIS in their research. Presents unique reflections, diversions, inspections and translations within the text to encourage readers’ critical thinking skills Includes a companion website to enhance the reflections, diversions, inspections and translations with additional resources Designed with examples, discussions and case studies from seasoned natural resource professionals with decades of combined professional experience

Forests comprise the greatest storage of carbon on land, provide fuel for millions, are the habitat for most terrestrial biodiversity, and are critical to the economies of many countries. Yet changes in the extent and dynamics of forests are inherently difficult to detect and quantify. Remote sensing technologies may facilitate the measurement of some key forest properties which, when combined with other information contained in various computer models, may allow for the quantification of critical forest functions. This book explores how remote sensing and computer modeling can be combined to estimate changes in the carbon storage, or productivity, of forests - from the level of the leaf to the level of the globe. Land managers, researchers, policy makers and students will all find stimulating discussions among an international set of experts at the cutting edge of the interface between science, technology and management.
