Analysing gap dynamics in forest canopies with landscape metrics based on multi-temporal airborne laser scanning surveys – A pilot study
For a long time gaps or openings in the forest canopy have been of considerable interest to forest ecologists and to forest managers. In the context of disturbances induced by climate change, canopy gap dynamics are of particular interest, since they can indicate imminent damage to forest resources...
