文摘
- •
We characterized annual rates of forest disturbance between 1985 and 2012.
- •
Landsat time series were visually interpreted, with support of ancillary data.
- •
A probability design was used to scale estimates and provide uncertainties.
- •
Harvest was the most important disturbance agent class prior to the mid-90s.
- •
Forest decline is now more important than harvest as the dominant agent class.
