Characterizing Tree Species in Northern Boreal Forests Using Multiple-Endmember Spectral Mixture Analysis and Multi-Temporal Satellite Imagery ...
Northern boreal forests are characterized by open stands whereby trees, understory background, and shadow are all significant components of the spectral response within a pixels’ spatial footprint. To overcome this mixed pixel problem, accurate spectral characterization of these (endmember) componen...
