Quantifying carbon and biomass in planted forests – a remote sensing perspective

Planted forests are important sources of forest products such as roundwood, fuelwood and fibre. Planted forests also play a role in carbon emission and biomass storage and have implications on climate change mitigation. Carbon emissions and biomass of planted forests are uncertain. As such informati...
