A method to predict vascular plant richness using spectral and textural variables in a heterogeneous wetland is presented. Plant richness was measured at 44 sampling plots in a 16-ha anthropogenic peatland. Several spectral indices, first-order …
Peatlands are a type of wetland characterized by the accumulation of organic matter, called peat, and are important carbon reservoirs. In areas with poor drainage, human‐induced forest fires and logging can produce flooded conditions and organic …
Due to its isolated location, Chile’s flora is characterized by a large number of endemic species which has guided the decision to assign central Chile the status of a global biodiversity hotspot. This biodiversity hotspot is, however, endangered by …
