A random forest is a meta estimator that fits a number of decision treeclassifiers on various sub-samples of the dataset and uses averaging toimprove the predictive accuracy and control over-fitting.The sub-sample size is controlled with the max_samples parameter ifbootstrap=True (default), otherwise the whole dataset is used to buildeach tree.
When set to True, reuse the solution of the previous call to fitand add more estimators to the ensemble, otherwise, just fit a wholenew forest. See Glossary andFitting additional weak-learners for details.
The predicted class of an input sample is a vote by the trees inthe forest, weighted by their probability estimates. That is,the predicted class is the one with highest mean probabilityestimate across the trees.
The predicted class probabilities of an input sample are computed asthe mean predicted class probabilities of the trees in the forest.The class probability of a single tree is the fraction of samples ofthe same class in a leaf.
Results from time-series analysis of Landsat images in characterizing global forest extent and change from 2000 through 2019. For additional information about these results, please see the associated journal article (Hansen et al., Science 2013).
This update of gross forest cover loss includes new 2019 loss-year and multispectral imagery layers. Relative to the version 1.0 product our method has been modified in numerous ways, and the new update should be seen as part of a transition to a future version 2.0 that is more consistent over the entire 2000-onward period. Key changes include:
You can also analyze these results directly in Google Earth Engine using the asset ID UMD/hansen/global_forest_change_2019_v1_7. If you are not yet an Earth Engine user, you may sign up here. To help you get started we have made an introductory tutorial showing examples of how to use this data to do a variety of things, including generating indices from annual Landsat composites and computing tree loss per year for regions of interest.
City Forest Credits is the national standard for greenhouse gas emission reduction and removal for tree projects in cities and towns. Developed by leading scientists, industry, and urban forest professionals, the Standard and Protocols define the set of rules and requirements that tree planting or preservation projects must follow in order to earn third-party verified carbon credits.
Smith has given varying explanations of his lyric for "A Forest." He has said the lyric was based upon a dream he had as a child where he was lost in the woods unable to escape, but later denied it and stated, "It's just about a forest."[7]
The promotional video for "A Forest" was the first that featured the band visually. It was created by David Hiller, who mixed footage from the band's 24 April 1980 debut appearance on BBC TV's Top of the Pops programme with a forest montage. Smith said the group "came across looking very morose and disinterested" in the video because that is how they felt at the time;[29] he "hated" Top of the Pops as he was "really anti-pop" during this period. He recalled he had been in pain at the time of the shoot as he had broken his thumb trying to change a tyre a few days previously.[30] Smith's bandaged left thumb can be seen in the video.
The final version of the 2020 Delaware Forest Resource Assessment (in flip book and PDF format) is now available for public review. It marks a 10-year update of the 2010 Delaware Forest Resource Assessment (link). It follows the same seven criteria and eighteen indicators as outlined in the Montréal Process and adopted by the Northeast-Midwest State Foresters Alliance. All aspects, both biological and social, of forests and their sound management are addressed. These include biological diversity, productive capacity, forest health, soil and water resources, carbon cycles, social aspects, and legal and economic issues. Each criterion is supported by at least one corresponding indicator.

This field guide is designed as a quick reference on climate change for northern Wisconsin forests. The intent is to highlight key information that can be used in the field or at your desk. We hope that this guide will help foresters consider climate change risks together with local site characteristics, and also that it will help people design adaptation actions that help meet management goals.
Pinyon and juniper woodlands are the most abundant forest type in the federally managed inventory of mature and old-growth forests, with nine million acres of old-growth pinyon-juniper across BLM and Forest Service lands and an additional 14 million acres of mature pinyon-juniper. This summer, the Forest Service and the BLM will be co-hosting public workshops focused on sustaining resilient pinyon-juniper ecosystems. The workshops are intended to ensure robust public engagement and scientific expertise and knowledge are underpinning the approaches taken to fulfill the Executive Order and other management strategies for ensuring healthy, resilient pinyon and juniper woodlands.
In response to feedback from stakeholder engagement, the report offers recommendations to conduct seed and nursery operations, improve coordination with non-federal partners, leverage opportunities for innovation with the private sector, and build a reforestation workforce with partners like the Conservation Corps.
To develop targets for reforestation on public lands by 2030, USDA and DOI evaluated recent peer-reviewed assessments and datasets conducted on public lands and identified more than 2.3 million acres in need of reforestation. This report also includes an assessment of more than 70 million acres of possible reforestation opportunities with state, tribal and private landowners, providing valuable insight on how existing partnerships and programs could be focused where they are needed most.
With climate change and related stressors causing rapid, variable change on national forests and grasslands, the Forest Service is asking for public input on how the agency should adapt current policies to protect, conserve, and manage national forests and grasslands for climate resilience. This Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for National Forest and Grassland Climate Resilience will be published in the Federal Register and publication will begin a 60-day public comment period. The Forest Service is also consulting with tribes and requesting feedback on current issues and considerations related to relying on the best available science including indigenous knowledge, as well as climate adaptation, mature and old-growth forests, and considerations for social and economic resilience.
Recent increases in forest tree mortality should increase the abundance coarse woody detritus (CWD) and ultimately lead to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide. However, the time course of carbon release from CWD is not well understood. We compiled CWD decomposition rate-constants (i.e., k) to examine how tree species, piece diameter, position (i.e., standing versus downed), canopy openness, and macroclimate influenced k. To illustrate their implications we modeled the effect of species and position on estimates of decomposition-related carbon flux. We examined a subset of currently used models to determine if their structure accounted for these factors.
A predicted response to a warming global climate is an increase in major forest ecosystem disturbances such as those caused by hurricanes, fire, drought, and insects [1,2,3]. Consequently, in the last decade, considerable effort has been made to estimate the amount of mortality related to forest disturbance particularly in temperate and boreal regions (e.g., [4]. For example, recent outbreaks of bark beetles have killed trees on 6 to 11 million ha in North America in a little over a decade [5]. Fire incidence and severity has been observed to increase in the western US as well as Amazonia in response to climatic drying [6, 7]. Widespread droughts have also led to a major tree die off in the Southwestern US [2, 8], western Canada [9, 10], and southern Europe [11]. While it is not completely certain, hurricane incidence and intensity appear to have both increased; these storms can kill a considerable amount of live tree biomass with hurricanes Katrina and Rita creating 43.9 and 37.9 Tg C of woody detritus, respectively [12]. The resulting influx of detritus can affect stand development processes for decades in some locations [13]. However, a changing climate is not the only factor leading to recent increases in tree mortality: Invasions of diseases such as sudden oak disease (Phytophthora ramorum) [14] and insects such as the emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis) [15, 16] and hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae) [17] are causing wide spread mortality of their new host tree species. Moreover, there is increasing evidence that small scale mortality (i.e., so-called regular or background mortality) has been increasing in western North America [18, 19] and southern Europe [11]. In addition to mortality events, if rates of stand development accelerate in response to climate change [20], one would expect greater density-induced tree mortality with concomitant dead wood creation. Taken together, these studies indicate considerable amounts of woody carbon are being transferred from live to dead pools by these various causes of mortality and that this process is likely to increase in the future.
