[Conghe Song] Forest succession is a fundamental ecological process, which has significant implications forsustainable natural resource management as well as ecosystem biological, biophysical, andbiogeochemical processes. Remote sensing is perhaps the only viable option to monitor succession inforest ecosystems over large areas in a timely and cost efficient manner. This study integrates thegeometric-optical and radiative transfer (GORT) canopy reflectance model with the ZELIG forestecosystem dynamics model to study the manifestation of forest succession in optical imagery... , "[Conghe Song] Forest succession is a fundamental ecological phenomenon, which has significant implications forsustainable ecosystem management as well as biological, biophysical, and biogeochemical processes.Remote sensing is perhaps the only viable option for monitoring changes in forest ecosystems overlarge areas in a timely and cost efficient manner... , "[Conghe Song] Forest succession is a fundamental ecological process which can impact the functioning of many terrestrial processes, such as water and nutrient cycling and carbon sequestration. Therefore, knowing the distribution of forest successional stages over a landscape facilitates a greater understanding of terrestrial ecosystems. One way of characterizing forest succession over the landscape is to use satellite imagery to map forest successional stages continuously over a region...
