Come and chat about Amazon forest #degradation mapping using #PlanetNICFI and emissions estimates at my poster today in #AGU23. I present some preliminary estimates and would love to discuss ideas on improving and moving forward! : )

My colleague Adugna G. Mullissa is showcasing #LUCA the forest alert system from CTrees at the Google booth in #AGU23 right now. Come and have a chat if you are around :)

.Adugna G. Mullissa gives a tour of the CTrees's Land Use Change Alerts (LUCA) data at #AGU23. Learn about the dataset and explore it in an #EarthEngine app 👇 ctrees.org/products/luca

#GreenhouseGas emissions from tropical forest loss increased by 5% in 2022 from the year before, while temperate forests bolstered their carbon-absorbing capacity, according to CTrees Read the full news 👇 buff.ly/3v8hJxj Via Mongabay

🌍 Amazon's historic 2023 drought: Rio Negro River, one on the largest river of the Amazon, hits century-low by Oct/Nov😱Sentinel-1 SAR data & AI 🤖 reveal water surface decrease to 9,559.9 km², 68.1% of max. surface observed in 2022-23 🛰️🤖💧CTrees arxiv.org/abs/2401.16393

🛰️🌳🪵🔥Number of land use alerts in the Brazilian #Amazon in 2023 dropped to pre-2019 lvls. Still a lot of work to do for #ZeroDeforestation - letsgo! 📎 Data #LUCA @ bit.ly/ctrees-luca -CTrees PS: This feature to input your own GeoJSON ("new age shapefile") rocks.🚀

Our new published research on the Amazon’s 2023 Drought highlights our method for near real-time large scale mapping of water surfaces every 12 days using Deep Learning and Sentinel-1 SAR. mdpi.com/2716430 #amazonforest #drought CTrees

RELEASE: CTrees scientists led by Fabien Wagner have mapped the height of all trees in California by applying a deep learning model to very high resolution aerial imagery. The result is the most accurate map of the state's canopy height to date 🌐🌲ctrees.org/news/californi…

📢🌳New paper led by Fabien Wagner in RSE on tree's height mapping over California with #DeepLearning I really like Fig 7 : it clearly shows how the model predicts height based on optical imagery very close to LiDAR even on STEEP terrain - crazy! 😮 doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.…

🌿 Join our 13th EEBIOMASS #workshop on “High-resolution satellite imagery & #MachineLearning for #forest monitoring” on MAR 28, 14:30 - 16:30 CET. 👥 Meet our speakers: Martin Brandt, Eric Gorgens, Robson Lima, Ricardo Dalagnol 📢 Register here: survey.academiccloud.de/index.php/1764…

CTrees' CEO Sassan Saatchi will speak at an SF Climate Week event on Apr 24. RSVP today!

CTrees research scientist Ricardo Dalagnol will speak at a workshop on hi-res satellite imagery and machine learning for forest monitoring TOMORROW, March 28 at 14:30 CET -->

NEWS: Alkad Mzu is pleased to announce the appointment of Stephen Hagen, Ph.D., as its first chief operating officer. As COO, Hagen will manage CTrees’ data and research initiatives for monitoring, reporting, and verification of natural climate solutions ctrees.org/news/stephen-h…

We mapped a half billion individual farmland trees in India, and tracked their fate over a decade. Many large trees have disappeared. The paper in Nature Sus.: doi.org/10.1038/s41893…, Viewer: rs-cph.projects.earthengine.app/view/tree. It's a new framework for temporal monitoring of single trees..

In 2020, 4 billion tons of live #carbon were stored in Gabon’s forests, according to new research from CTrees. Learn more about their findings from measuring the live carbon density of every hectare of forest in Gabon. ctrees.org/news/gabon-car…

Visited INPE this week and presented some updates on the research I lead at CTrees. Top level discussions on forest degradation and applied AI for earth observation. Thanks Luiz Aragao TREES-Research Lab DSR INPE for the invite ! :)

Just discovered the most massive tree I've ever seen in the Amazon rainforest via satellite image—over 50 meters in crown diameter and more than 50 meters in height! 🛰🌳CTrees Ricardo Dalagnol
