Sentence examples for evaluated forest from inspiring English sources

We evaluated forest floor and mineral soil chemical and physical characteristics following these treatments in a managed Sierra Nevada mixed-conifer forest using a fully replicated study design with four separate treatments: THIN, BURN, THIN + BURN, and an untreated CONTROL.

Results showed that the use of Landsat plus MASTER bundle performed better than using the individual sensors in most of the evaluated forest strata from ground to canopy layers (i.e., substrate, shrubs, intermediate-sized trees, dominant trees and average), with the best model performance achieved at the dominant tree layer.

This approach was applied to evaluate forest damage severity and the impacted region caused by Hurricane Katrina.

Ecosynth UAV remote-sensing provides an effective alternate methodology to traditional field-based measures of evaluating forest structure and complexity across landscapes.

The NAFD project is evaluating forest disturbance patterns and rates of disturbance by integrating U.S. Department of Agriculture USDA Forest Service Inventoryry and Analysis (FIA) field observations with temporally dense time series Landsat imagery.

We related forest cover to stream variables, expecting to find better habitat and water quality conditions in catchments with better forest cover conditions in order to evaluate forest cover as indicator of stream health in agricultural landscapes.

In the light of the appearing paradigms of natural disturbance regimes and ecosystem-based forest management we evaluate forest management in the former Soviet Union and Sweden with respect to conservation of riparian forest ecotones.

Performance of the model for historical conditions implies the model's applicability across a broad region and suggests the usefulness of a detailed model for evaluating forest change to management and changing climate.

To assess such potential, it is necessary to know the diversity of agricultural land uses in the landscape, quantify the ecological disturbance inflicted by such uses, and evaluate forest regeneration as a function of disturbance both at the field and landscape levels.

Remote sensing offers the potential to scale up from plot to higher landscape levels but it has proven complex to evaluate forest structure, and therefore biomass patterns in tropical areas, due to saturation, signal noises, and unclear relationships between reflectance values and structural properties, both for optical and radar systems.

In order to evaluate forest structure and live AGB variation along an elevational gradient (0 1100 m a.s.l). of coastal Atlantic Forest in SE Brazil, we carried out a standard census of woody stems ≥4.8 cm dbh in 13 1-ha permanent plots established on four different sites in 2006 2007.
