Forest attribute estimation of northeastern Canadian forests using Quickbird imagery and a shadow fraction method

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 14 November 2022

Published in Forest Ecology and Management, vol. 266, p. 66-74. This study demonstrates a method for mapping forest stand polygons based on four forest attributes (volume, basal area, height, and crown closure) using shadow fraction values that were estimated from...

A Multisensor Multiresolution Method for Mapping Vegetation Status, Surficial Deposits, and Historical Fires Over Very Large Areas in Northern Boreal Forests of Quebec, Canada

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 14 November 2022

Published in IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, vol. 8(11), 5199-5211. Boreal forests have a significant impact on the Earth’s climate and on global warming. In this context, a large-scale mapping method was...

Sugar maple (Acer saccharum) at its northeastern range limit: a fire-resilient tree species

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 14 November 2022

Published in Botany 96: 411-423 https://doi.org/10.1139/cjb-2018-0016 The long-standing hypothesis that sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marshall) communities are maintained at equilibrium by present climate and small-scale disturbances is questioned because empirical...

A shadow fraction method for mapping biomass of northern boreal black spruce forests using QuickBird imagery

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 14 November 2022

Published in Remote Sensing of Environment, vol. 110, p. 488-500. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2006.05.025  We developed and tested a method for mapping aboveground forest biomass of black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.) stands in northern boreal forests of...

Surface analysis as a method to reconstruct past and recent dynamics of forest ecosystems

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 14 November 2022

Published in Forest Ecology and Management, 407: 84-94. The most direct way of deciphering the dynamics of an ecosystem is by examining its biotic and abiotic components based on analysis of living and dead organisms distributed aboveground. The surface analysis...
