Estimation of above-ground biomass of large tropical trees with Terrestrial LiDAR by González de Tanago, J., Lau, A., Bartholomeus, H.M., Herold, Martin, Avitabile, Valerio, Raumonen, P., Martius, C., Goodman, R., Disney, M., Manuri, S., Burt, A., Calders, K.

“…Twenty‐nine plots were scanned with a TLS in three study sites (Peru, Indonesia and Guyana). We identified the largest tree per plot (mean diameter at breast height of 73.5 cm), extracted its point cloud and calculated its volume by 3D modelling its structure using quantitative structure models (QSM) and converted to AGB using species‐specific wood density. …”

Atmospheric CH4 and CO2 enhancements and biomass burning emission ratios derived from satellite observations of the 2015 Indonesian fire plumes by Parker, R.J., Boesch, H., Wooster, M.J., Moore, D.P., Webb, A.J., Gaveau, D.L.A., Murdiyarso, Daniel

“…We demonstrate significant modifications in the concentration of these species in the regional atmosphere around Indonesia, due to the fire emissions. Using CO and fire radiative power (FRP) data from the Copernicus Atmosphere Service, we identify fire-affected GOSAT soundings and show that peaks in fire activity are followed by subsequent large increases in regional greenhouse gas concentrations. …”

Variation in Vegetation and Ecosystem Carbon Stock Due to the Conversion of Disturbed Forest to Oil Palm Plantation in Peruvian Amazonia by Málaga Durán, N., Hergoualc'h, Kristell, Kapp, G., Martius, C.

“…The growth curve for oil palm above-ground biomass was consistently below models developed for plantations in Indonesia. Thirty-year time-averaged ecosystem C stock (Mg C ha−1) in oil palm plantations (78.2 ± 2.0) represented 55% of the stock in disturbed forest (140.9 ± 5.8), resulting in a 62.7 ± 6.1 loss from such conversion. …”

Mapping of smallholder oil palm plantation and development of a growth model by Okarda, B., Carolita, I., Kartika, T., Komarudin, Heru

“…Smallholder plantation accounts for 39% of total oil palm plantation in Indonesia, which is currently estimated at 12 million ha.Limited information on spatial distribution of smallholder oil palm and the growth of plantation pose a great challenge for providing information in scientific based.Therefore, information on smallholder oil palm plantation are necessary and they will give valuable input for policy maker and related stakeholders.This study is aimed to generate smallholder oil palm distribution map using optical satellite data of SPOT 7 and investigate the backscatter values of ALOS PALSAR-2 with height and age of oil palm in mineral soil and peatland.We mapped 46,756 ha of smallholder plantation or about 18% of total oil palm plantation in district of Kotawaringin Barat, Central Kalimantan province and 14% of which is located on peatland area.From the result, height to age mineral soil has a strong relationship with R 2 value 0.80 but weak in peatland with R 2 value 0.31.Relationship between height and backscatter in mineral soil has R 2 value 0.43 for HH and 0.30 for HV and in peatland 0.28 for HH and 0.15.Relationship between age and backscatter in mineral soil has moderately strong correlation with R 2 value 0.55 for HH and 0.37 for HV and in peatland 0.36 for HH and 0.28.In all relationship, independent variables are statistically significant with Significance-F value lower than 0.05.In general, height, age, and backscatter relationship in peatland is lower than in mineral soil.Backscatter value can be useful for studying height and age of smallholder oil palm.Further studies are suggested to involve more potential variables and utilize multi temporal datasets in determining height and age of oil palm trees using backscatter values.…”
