Protocol for biomass and carbon storage estimation in tropical rainforests via remote sensing imagery

Here, we present a protocol for estimating biomass and carbon sequestration in tropical rainforests. We describe steps for combining remotely sensed data from Sentinel-2 imagery with data collected from standard field surveys. This protocol provides a cost-effective and time-efficient solution for large-scale forest resource assessments. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Dang et al.<sup>1</sup>.

Abstract

Here, we present a protocol for estimating biomass and carbon sequestration in tropical rainforests. We describe steps for combining remotely sensed data from Sentinel-2 imagery with data collected from standard field surveys. This protocol provides a cost-effective and time-efficient solution for large-scale forest resource assessments. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Dang et al.<sup>1</sup>.
