Landscape-scale quantification of fire-induced change in canopy cover following mountain pine beetle outbreak and timber harvest
Across the western United States, the three primary drivers of tree mortality and carbon balance are bark beetles, timber harvest, and wildfire. While these agents of forest change frequently overlap, uncertainty remains regarding their interactions…

Selecting Control Sites for Post-Fire Ecological Studies Using Biological Criteria and MODIS Time Series Data
Wildland fires play a key role in the functioning and structure of vegetation. The availability of sensors aboard satellites, such as Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), makes possible the construction of a time series of…

Prediction of forest canopy and surface fuels from lidar and satellite time series data in a bark beetle-affected forest
Wildfire behavior depends on the type, quantity, and condition of fuels, and the effect that bark beetle outbreaks have on fuels is a topic of current research and debate. Remote sensing can provide estimates of fuels across landscapes, although few…
