It was a pleasure and an honour to speak at the EU Council yesterday. In my presentation, I focused on bringing constructive remote sensing solutions that I think are pertinent to the proposal for an EU Regulation on forest monitoring and the carbon removal and carbon farming.
Professor @rubenvalpue from SLU - Forest Remote Sensing was invited by the Polish presidency to give a presentation at the @EUCouncil. In his presentation, Prof. Valbuena advocated for the inclusion of remote sensing in the new EU Forest Monitoring Law currently in preparation.

Excited to share that my PhD research on a new entropy-based index for forest ecosystems is now published in Remote Sensing of Environment (RSE)! 🌳✨ Grateful for all the support along the way! 🙏🏻💡@TropiDry @rubenvalpue
#PhD-Research #LiDAR#Full_waveform#EntropyIndex
Our new paper presenting a new #forest #entropy-index was published by #RSE. Here we developed the #Lorenz #Entropy-Index to study changes in forest vertical structure as a function of ecological succession using #LiDAR @rubenvalpue @NooshinMashhad1

Our study showing a very low absorption of CO2 by plants in 2023 was published today - Thanks to all co authors
academic.oup.com
This work reveals an unprecedented weakening of the land carbon sink in 2023 using low-latency atmospheric inversion, dynamic vegetation models, and AI-pow
🚨 Collapse of the land carbon sink in 2023 🚨 As the CO2 growth rate reached a record high at Mauna Loa, we set up a low-latency analysis of the carbon budget and found that plants and soils absorbed almost no CO2 last year @gcarbonproject @gpbalsamo

It was great to speak for such a clever crowd and get some insights on what’s going on in precision forestry. I always feel that I learn so much in conferences like this one, but #forestsat24 has taken it to the next level.

Here we: • Propose a fully remote sensing-based forest inventory method using LiDAR • Estimate DBH and volume are estimated at individual tree-level • Assess the suitability of LiDAR not only for the production of wall-to-wall maps, but also as training data collection tools
