Modeling Spatially Explicit Forest Structural Attributes Using Generalized Additive Models

We modelled forest composition and structural diversity in the Uinta Mountains, Utah, as functions of satellite spectral data and spatially-explicit environmental variables through generalized additive models. Measures of vegetation composition and structural diversity were available from existing f...
