Retention harvesting shows great promise for restoring and maintaining forest structural and compositional diversity. However, economical, comprehensive monitoring is needed to advance understanding of the effectiveness of these management strategies through time. We investigate multi-temporal winter Landsat sensor data (capturing snow ground cover at 7.6 cm and 106.7 cm depths) as a tool for discriminating between and providing regional estimates of both residual forest basal area (BA) and downed coarse woody material (DCWM) volume following retention harvesting in Minnesota, USA. Measurements from 34 ground plots were used with Landsat predictor variables to estimate these two biophysical forest parameters. According to similar studies, results for DCWM volume estimation are considered adequate, with an R² adj = 0.54 and absolute RMSE (RMSE a ) = 19.02 m 3 ha -1 . Residual forest BA estimates were similar: total BA R² adj = 0.55 (RMSE a = 1.85 m<...
