Assessment of the Carbon Stock in Pine Plantations in Southern Spain through ALS Data and <i>K-</i>Nearest Neighbor Algorithm Based Models

Assessment of the Carbon Stock in Pine Plantations in Southern Spain through ALS Data and <i>K-</i>Nearest Neighbor Algorithm Based Models

Accurate estimation of forest biomass to enable the mapping of forest C stocks over large areas is of considerable interest nowadays. Airborne laser scanning (ALS) systems bring a new perspective to forest inventories and subsequent biomass estimation. The objective of this research was to combine g...
