We studied the modern pollen rain in two different landscapes from Hyrcanian lowland forests up to slopes of Alborz Mountains Gilan province for first time. Pollen traps were installed one year and moss samples collected along altitudinal transects 100 1800 m 2300 elevations. The results counting environmental DNA barcoding (metabarcoding) compared 32 locations. In total, 81 vascular plant spec...

Forest types mapping is one of the most necessary elements in forest management and Silviculture treatments. Traditional methods such as field surveys are time-consuming and cost-intensive. Improving satellite data sources and classification methods offer new opportunities for obtaining more accurate forest biophysical maps. This research compares performance of three non-parametric and tree-ba...

Structural diversity is recognized as a complementary aspect of biological and plays fundamental role in forest management, conservation, restoration. Hence, the assessment structural has become major effort primary international processes, dealing with biodiversity sustainable management. Because prohibitive costs associated ground measurements structure, despite their high accuracy, space-bor...
