Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS): Lasers on the ground that scan trees from below. Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle Laser Scanning ...

Highly detailed 3D scans of dense tropical rain forest plots are enabling precise estimates of tree structure, volume and ...

New 3D scans of tropical rainforests give scientists better data on forest biomass, boosting carbon tracking and satellite ...

A new study shows that careful forest thinning in the cascade mountains can reduce wildfire risk and help more snow reach the ground.

Native forest restoration usually starts with faster growing "nurse plants" that provide shelter under which to plant bigger trees—but new research suggests some big canopy trees can be planted early ...

The dataset, published in Earth System Science Data, represents what researchers describe as the first fully compiled 3D tree census of its kind. The information is intended to improve estimates of ...

Throughout the Amazon Rainforest, forest fragmentation represents an escalating and existential threat to the preservation of ...

The idea that forest trees can 'talk' to each other, share resources with their seedlings -- and even protect them -- through a connective underground web of delicate fungal filaments tickles the ...

A researcher from South Korea’s Korea Maritime Institute has found solar trees have the potential to generate the same power of a solar farm while reducing the loss of forest cover by up to 99%. In ...

Highly detailed 3D scans of dense tropical rain forest plots are enabling precise estimates of tree structure, volume and stored carbon, as part of a ...
