Short summary
We demonstrate the potential of spaceborne data for integrating forest height and density to assess forest structure for patches in the taiga–tundra ecotone. We map forest patches at sites in northern Siberia with spaceborne data and examine the uncertainty of forest patch height estimates across these ecotone sites. Results demonstrate the opportunities for improving patch-based spaceborne estimates of forest height and forest structure patterns in the circumpolar domain.
We demonstrate the potential of spaceborne data for integrating forest height and density to...
