Evapotranspiration of forest landcover could be a measure of the ecosystem health as we learn from the theoretical thermodynamics. To compute ecological losses of the forest ecosystem, we introduced an ecological damage index as a ratio of evapotranspiration decrement of damaged ecosystem to the evapotranspiration of the healthy one. Ecological losses were computed as a product of ecological damage index and an ecosystem cost. We discuss two ways to select a healthy ecosystem. The source data are MODIS/Terra Evapotranspiration 8-Day grid and Vegetation Map of Russia (Space Research Institute RAS product). The final products are a map of specific ecological losses of Leningrad Region and a rating of administrative districts by ecological losses. Finally, we computed ecological losses for all forests of Leningrad Region. We conclude that thorough verification of this new methodology is needed. In the future, it opens a way to automatic satellite mapping of forest ecosystem ecological losses.
Keywords: forest ecosystem, thermodynamics, damage, satellite, remote sensing, mapping, ecological losses
