• Allometric equation choice impacts lidar-based forest biomass estimates: A case study from the Sierra National Forest, CA (2012, unknown): “The second pproach begins by identifying each individual tree using the CHM r the raw point cloud, then the biomass for each individual tree re estimated, and these are aggregated at the plot scale.”
• A LIDAR-based crop height measurement system for Miscanthus giganteus (2012, methodology): “Here, the height of trees was measured by creating a digital terrain map and canopy model, where the reported error was 0.63 m. Kwak et al. (2007) also used an airborne LIDAR, where a morphological image analysis method was applied to a digital canopy model to detect tree tops.”
