Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We set plots and collected the diversity data of trees and insects in natural forests with various fire levels in north of Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. From the analysis of relationships between the diversity data and reflection rates of wavelength regions derived from the satellite images or indices calculated from the several reflection rates, we made the models estimating the maximum height and thickness of trees, the rate of pioneer tree species, and the species richness of dung beetles and braconid wasps from the satellite images. These results make expect to develop a method to monitor the conservation of biodiversity in tropical forests in the REDD+ operation with using satellite images.
