best management practices, estimations of rubber latex yields, and carbon cycle studies (eg,
biomass, carbon pools, and fluxes). However, the stand age (as estimated from the
establishment year of rubber plantation) is not available across large regions. In this study,
we analyzed Landsat time series images from 1987–2015 and developed algorithms to
identify (1) the establishment year of rubber plantations; and (2) the pre-conversion land …
