Forest Service is to measure horizontal cover using a cover board. We used field measurements and airborne Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) metrics to test beta regression models that predict estimates of horizontal cover on the Nez Perce–Clearwater National Forest, Idaho, USA, 2009–2015. ...

Using Landsat imagery, US Forest Service Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) data, and off-the-shelf LiDAR collections we developed three modeling approaches for mapping historical forest aboveground biomass (AGB): training on FIA plot-level AGB estimates (direct), training on LiDAR-derived AGB ma...
(USDA Forest Service2014). This dataset contained reliable point location and year of fire data for the period 1940–2013 but lacked fire start date and cause of fire information for a portion of the record. To fire address this discrepancy, we assigned a Julian start date for each fire by...
