algorithms; automatic detection; bark; bark beetles; cost effectiveness; storms; wind speed; windthrow
Abstract:
... Increased frequencies and windspeeds of storms may cause disproportionately high increases in windthrow damage. Storm-felled trees provide a surplus of breeding material for bark beetles, often resulting in calamities in the subsequent years. Thus, the timely removal of fallen trees is regarded as a good management practice that requires strategic planning of salvage harvesting. Precise informatio ...
