Bark beetle-caused tree mortality affects important forest ecosystem processes. Remote sensing methodologies that quantify live and dead basal area (BA) in bark beetle-affected forests can provide valuable information to forest managers and researchers. We compared the utility of light detection and ranging (lidar) and the Landsat-based detection of trends in disturbance and recovery (LandTrendr)...
Recent bark beetle outbreaks in western North America have been widespread and severe. Forest managers need accurate information on beetle-induced tree mortality to make better decisions on how best to remediate beetle-killed forests and restore healthy ecosystem services. We applied the LandTrendr analysis tool, which can detect beetle-induced tree mortality, to Landsat image time series (1984–2010)...
