摘要 Time series analysis has gained popularity in forest disturbance monitoring thanks to the availability of satellite and airborne remote sensing images and the development of different time series methods for change detection. Previous research has focused on time series data noise reduction, the magnitude of breakpoints, and accuracy assessment; however, few have looked in detail at how the trend and seasonal model components contribute to disturbance detection in different forest types. Here, we use Landsat time series images spanning 1994–2018 to map forest disturbance in a western Pacific area of Mexico, where both temperate and tropical dry forests have been subject to severe deforestation and forest degradation processes. Since these two forest types have distinct seasonal characteristics, we investigate how trend and seasonal model components, such as the goodness-of-fit (R2), magnitude of change, amplitude, and model length in a stable historical period, affect forest disturbance detection. We applied the Breaks For Additive Season and Trend Monitor (BFAST) algorithm and after accuracy assessment by stratified random sample points, and we obtained 68% and 86% of user accuracy and 75.6% and 86% of producer’s accuracy in disturbance detection, in tropical dry forests and temperate forests, respectively. We extracted the noncorrelated trend and seasonal model components?R2, magnitude, amplitude, length of the stable historical period, and percentage of pixels with NA and tested their effects on disturbance detection employing forest-type specific logistic regression. Our results showed that, for all forests combined, the amplitude and stable historical period length contributed to disturbance detection. While for tropical dry forest alone, amplitude was the main predictor, and for the temperate forest alone, the stable historical period length contributed most to the prediction, although it was not statistically significant. These findings provide insights for improving the results of forest disturbance detection in different forest types.
