Ett första steg i arbetet att uppskatta kolflödet mellan landbaserade ekosystem och atmosfären är att så precist som möjligt analysera kvantiteten ovanjordisk biomassa. LiDAR teknologi har i detta avseende visat sig vara ett värdefullt verktyg. Det överlöpande målet med denna studie är att utveckla en förenklad metod, baserad på fjärranalys, för att uppskatta ovanjordisk biomassa för individuella As a first step in the assessment of carbon flux between the terrestrial environment and the atmosphere it is important to accurately quantify the carbon stock of forest ecosystems. LiDAR technology, in this respect, has proved to be a valuable tool, able to provide accurate estimates of aboveground biomass (AGB).
