    Notes: Abstract Digital elevation model data were used to partition a mountainous landscape (northwestern Montana, USA) into watershed/hillslope terrain units at several different spatial scales. Fractal analysis of the perimeter to area relationships of the resulting partition polygons identified statistical self-similarity across a range of spatial scales (approximately four orders of magnitude in partition area). The fractal dimension was higher for a relatively complex fluvially-dominated terrain than for a structurally simpler glacially-dominated terrain (1.23 vs. 1.02, respectively). The structural self-similarity exhibited by this landscape has direct implications in scaling up ecosystem process models for landscape to regional simulations.

    Notes: [Auszug] Remote sensing is used increasingly for the measurements required to develop landscape, regional and global assessments of the state of the biosphere. To date, most applications of remote sensing to terrestrial ecosystems have involved the estimation of foliar area and biomass, or absorbed ...
