abstract = "The objective of this study was to develop statistical models for
estimating aboveground biomass (AGB) at Tapajos National Forest,
Par{\'a}, Brazil, using spectral metrics derived from RapidEye.
Measurements of diameter at breast height (DBH) and tree height
were collected for 88 forest inventory plots (50 m x 50 m). All
trees were identified to the genus and/or species level and their
biomasses were estimated using allometric equations. The
explanatory variables were extracted from the five spectral bands
of the RapidEye satellite (5 m spatial resolution) and included
individual bands, band ratios, and vegetation indices. Biomass
estimation models were fitted using multiple linear regression and
the non-parametric algorithm Random Forest. The predictive
performance of the models was assessed based on the coefficient of
determination (r2) and the root mean square error (RMSE)
calculated using a cross-validation procedure. The best regression
model selected included three variables and presented a
cross-validation r2 of 0.67 and a RMSE of 95,4 Mg ha-1 (50%). The
Random Forest algorithm presented a better performance, with an r2
of 0.75 and a RMSE of 84,1 Mg ha-1 (45%). We conclude that metrics
derived from the RapidEye sensor have the potential to explain a
large portion of the variability in biomass at Tapajos, when
combined with a more powerful statistical framework such as Random
Forest.",
