The influence of the abandoned lands parameters on their spectral response is the basis for the development of methods for their study using remote sensing data. The article analyzes the relationships between the forest cover of abandoned agricultural lands, typical for the Central Russian forest-steppe, and Sentinel-2 spectral response. For abandoned lands with deciduous species, the strongest relationship between forest cover and spectral response is found in the red and SWIR bands. The relationship between forest cover and spectral response in the red edge and NIR ranges is direct, but less pronounced. For abandoned lands with coniferous or mixed forests, a pronounced relationship between forest cover and spectral response is in red and SWIR bands. The relationship between the forest cover and the spectral response of marked lands in the most informative ranges of MSI sensor is curvilinear and described by the logit-function. Spatial analysis of forest cover and spectral response of abandoned lands in the red and SWIR ranges showed that the reflectance values in these bands can be used for spatial estimates of abandoned lands forest cover in the region.
