Biography
Muluken Nega is received a BSc. degree in Forestry from Hawassa University, Ethiopia in 2010. He received MSc. degree in Environmental Science (Energy and Climate Change) from Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia in 2014. He also received MSc. degree in Geo-information Science and Earth Observation from University of Twente, Netherlands in 2017. Currently, he is working as Lecturer and Researcher, Dilla University, Ethiopia since 2010. He is expertise in application of earth observation data in natural resources. Current research interest is the application of LiDAR technologies and Unnamed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) in tropical forests parameter measurements and monitoring specifically to support climate change mitigation inputs. Recently, he develop methods for accurate measurement of the complex tropical rainforest carbon stocks through integrating Airborne LiDAR Scanning (ALS) and Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) data. This approach is considered more accurate measurement way than traditional field-based method which could offer reliable data for carbon monetary
