Exploring the potential of field spectroscopy for tree species identification in different Amazonian forest ecosystems

Species identification in Amazonian forest inventories is challenging due to a shortage of taxonomists, high biodiversity, and morphological similarities leading to taxonomic errors. Full-range spectroscopy (350–2500 nm) is a promising tool for …

Scaling up tree diversity inventories across Amazonian ecosystems using field spectroscopy

● Species identification in Amazonian forest inventories is challenging due to a shortage of taxonomists, high biodiversity, and morphological similarities leading to taxonomic errors. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a promising tool for …
