Terrestrial laser scanning for plot-scale forest measurement (2015)
Journal Article
Newnham, G., Armston, J., Calders, K., Disney, M., Lovell, J., Schaaf, C., …Danson, F. (2015). Terrestrial laser scanning for plot-scale forest measurement. Current Forestry Reports, 1(4), 239-251. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40725-015-0025-5

Plot-scale measurements have been the foundation for forest surveys and reporting for over 200 years. Through recent integration with airborne and satellite remote sensing, manual measurements of vegetation structure at the plot scale are now the b...

Waveform lidar over vegetation : An evaluation of inversion methods for estimating return energy (2015)
Journal Article
Hancock, S., Armston, J., Li, Z., Gaulton, R., Lewis, P., Disney, M., …Gaston, K. (2015). Waveform lidar over vegetation : An evaluation of inversion methods for estimating return energy. Remote Sensing of Environment, 164, 208-224. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2015.04.013

Full waveform lidar has a unique capability to characterise vegetation in more detail than any other practical method. The reflectance, calculated from the energy of lidar returns, is a key parameter for a wide range of applications and so it is vita...
