Remote sensing-based biomass estimation has attracted much attention due to the relative ease and low cost of acquiring remotely sensed data over nearly inaccessible forested areas. To date, the AGB estimation over dense tropical rainforest remains challenging. This 1-yr project attempts to improve forest biomass estimation through exploring the applications of machine learning techniques in AGB estimation and the synergy of SAR with satellite lidar data for wall-to-wall AGB mapping. The research also emphasizes on the uncertainty analysis of ESA BIOMASS’s estimation through a full error propagation procedure.
