The importance of spatial scale and vegetation complexity in woody species diversity and its relationship with remotely sensed variables
Plant species diversity is key to ecosystem functioning, but in recent decades anthropogenic activities have prompted an alarming decline in this community trait. Thus, developing strategies to understand diversity dynamics based on affordable and efficient remote sensing monitoring is essential, as well as examining the relevance of spatial scale and vegetation structural complexity to these dynamics. Here, we used two mathematical approaches to assess the relationship between tropical woody species diversity and spectral diversity in a human-modified landscape in two vegetation types differing in their degree of complexity. Vegetation complexity was measured through the fraction of species that concentrate different proportions of the cumulative importance value index. Species diversity was assessed using Hill numbers at three spatial scales, and metrics of spectral heterogeneity, vegetation indices, as well as raw data from Landsat 9 and Sentinel-2 sensors were calculated and analysed through general linear models (GLM) and Random Forest. Vegetation complexity emerged as an important variable in modelling species from remote sensing metrics, indicating the need to model species diversity by vegetation type rather than region. Hill numbers showed different relationships with remotely sensed metrics, in consistency with the scale-dependency of ecological processes on species diversity. Contrary to multiple previous reports, in our study, GLMs produced the best fits between Hill numbers of all orders and remotely sensed metrics. If we are to meet the need of conducting efficient and speedy woody species diversity monitoring globally, we propose modelling this diversity from remotely-sensed variables as an attractive strategy, so long as the intrinsic properties of each vegetation type are acknowledged to avoid under- or overestimation biases.
期刊介绍:
The ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (P&RS) serves as the official journal of the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS). It acts as a platform for scientists and professionals worldwide who are involved in various disciplines that utilize photogrammetry, remote sensing, spatial information systems, computer vision, and related fields. The journal aims to facilitate communication and dissemination of advancements in these disciplines, while also acting as a comprehensive source of reference and archive.
P&RS endeavors to publish high-quality, peer-reviewed research papers that are preferably original and have not been published before. These papers can cover scientific/research, technological development, or application/practical aspects. Additionally, the journal welcomes papers that are based on presentations from ISPRS meetings, as long as they are considered significant contributions to the aforementioned fields.
In particular, P&RS encourages the submission of papers that are of broad scientific interest, showcase innovative applications (especially in emerging fields), have an interdisciplinary focus, discuss topics that have received limited attention in P&RS or related journals, or explore new directions in scientific or professional realms. It is preferred that theoretical papers include practical applications, while papers focusing on systems and applications should include a theoretical background.
