Historically, there hasn't been a way to practically measure the value that tropical forests provide for combating climate change. But new technological advances could change tropical forest management—one of the hot topics at World Economic Forum this week. planet.com/pulse/category…

Breakthrough research led by @Greg_Asner & Ovidiu Csillik using #machinelearning to combine airborne LiDAR w/ @Planetlabs satellite imagery informs innovative, cost-effective solutions for measuring & monitoring forest carbon. Beautifully explained here: bit.ly/30KrPkV

Super excited to start a new #postdoc position at Wageningen University & Research. I will continue working on better mapping and monitoring tropical forests using remote sensing and advanced techniques. Stay tuned, great research will follow!

New paper out from our Erol Foundation funded project led by @OvidiuCsillik on forest structure & carbon mapping with @Planetlabs data. Download the paper from @remotesens_MDPI here: mdpi.com/2072-4292/12/7…

Visiting scholar Ovidiu Csillik and Berkeley Environmental Science, Policy & Mngmt CE specialist Maggi Kelly integrated #artificialintelligence with geospatial technology, which forms precise images of agricultural land in California. Read this recent article about the project: ow.ly/eqIW50zBdNA

A nice summary of some recent ML work using #UAV imagery of agriculture. geospatialworld.net/blogs/harnessi… Ovidiu Csillik Ag&Natural Resources Berkeley Environmental Science, Policy & Mngmt Here is the original paper: mdpi.com/2504-446X/2/4/…

Delighted to see our work in Scientific Reports selected in a collection of Editor's choice: Deforestation. We used @planetlabs images to monitor Peru's tropical forest carbon emissions. Greg Asner Asner Lab ASU GDCS Joe Mascaro Pramukta Kumar nature.com/collections/ca…

Happy to see that our article on mapping tropical forest canopy height with @planetlabs imagery is a highly dowloaded paper in Remote Sensing MDPI. Great work with Pramukta Kumar Greg Asner Asner Lab ASU GDCS. Check the paper here: mdpi.com/2072-4292/12/7…

High-resolution, high-frequency, spatially explicit monitoring of forest carbon emissions ("ACE") using @planetlabs satellites. Great working with Ovidiu Csillik to a culmination of his postdoctoral studies at Asner Lab and ASU GDCS . More on ACE to come journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

New article dealing with phenology-based sample generation for supervised crop type classification. Great work Mariana Belgiu Open-access article here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

About 30% of Earth's surface is covered by forests, but their area is declining annually🌲🌳 On #InternationalDayofForests let's explore how Copernicus EU #Sentinel1 data are used to track the state and dynamics of forest biomass globally: sentinel.esa.int/web/success-st…

Happy to see my latest work featured by ESA.

Join my oral talk tomorrow at #AGU2022 . Highly detailed tropical forest degradation and carbon changes in the Amazon using lidar through time. agu.confex.com/agu/fm22/meeti…

Come stop by our poster at 0902. Amazona, GEDI, forest structure. #AGU2022

📢My first post-doc paper is out! 🎉 Classification of degraded forests in the Amazon with Planet images, and assessment of biomass uncertainty when uncertainty in forest class is considered as well. cbmjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… @mdplongo Ovidiu Csillik

Working with diverse tropical forests? Using remote sensing, models or in situ data to investigate how these ecosystems are responding to climate or land use change? Share your research at our #AGU23 session! Submit your abstract here before Aug 2 agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/preli…

Excited to share that I've joined Wake Forest University as an Assistant Professor in Remote Sensing! Grateful for an amazing experience at NASA JPL. Looking forward to collaborating with students and colleagues, and making meaningful contributions to our community together!

Excited to see our recent PNASNews paper highlighted by nature. Repeated airborne lidar is crucial for accurately monitoring tropical forests, enabling precise tracking of changes in biodiversity and carbon storage. nature.com/articles/d4158…
