Funding: NSERC Discovery Grant. Term: 2021-2026. The project is developing an explicit logic and corresponding software to extend morphological segmentation to depict a true 3D characterization of landscapes. Methods will be subject to sensitivity analysis and will be used to compare the effects and recovery of landscape processes such as fire, […]

Forest disturbances, such as wildfires and timber harvests, are ecological processes within forested landscapes that are intrinsic to the history and development of boreal forests. […]
