Methods to research the status and change of Russia’s northern forests using multi scale remote sensing
Zoom seminar
Drs Tutubalina and Rees are co-leading a UK-Russian research project to develop and apply new methods to estimate biophysical parameters (principally GSV and LAI) for boreal forest across the whole of Russia. The project takes a multi-scale approach, from fieldwork, through the use of drones and upscaling based on high-resolution satellite data, to global-coverage remote sensing products derived from MODIS data. A major focus of the research is to understand changes in forest biophysical parameters from 2000 to 2020 in the context of regional climate change
