Tracking 3D forest density dynamics in a mixed temperate forestusing occlusion-aware voxel transmittance and consistent multitemporalUAV-LiDAR

Forest structure and density dynamics drive ecosystem processes including carbon sequestration, microclimate regulation, and photosynthetic capacity. While LiDAR can capture these properties, high-frequency monitoring remains constrained by scarce multi-temporal datasets, inconsistent acquisitions, and occlusion biases confounding true structural change with methodological artifacts. This study…
