Overview

Analysis shows high carbon stocks in Chure forests using Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 imagery, indicating effective monitoring methods.

Key Points

  • Sentinel-2 provided improved accuracy for estimating aboveground biomass, outperforming Landsat-8.
  • Multiple Linear Regression analysis revealed R-squared values of 0.78 for Sentinel-2 and 0.68 for Landsat-8 estimating models.
  • Remote sensing techniques enabled cost-effective estimation of belowground carbon stocks with repeated observations.
  • Both satellite images are viable, but Sentinel-2 showed lower RMSE values, indicating better performance for biomass estimates.
