High-Resolution Mapping of Litter and Duff Fuel Loads Using Multispectral Data and Random Forest Modeling

Forest fuels are the core element of fire management; each fuel component plays an important role in fire behavior. Therefore, accurate determination of their characteristics and spatial distribution is crucial. This paper introduces a novel method for mapping the spatial distribution of litter and...
