The ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model Version 3 (GDEM v3) data to create the Digital Elevation Model (DEM)

Hi to all,

I am Souhila, a PhD student working in the field of forest mycology (macrofungi ecological analysis). I am new to NASA Earthdata. I came thru an interesting paper (Kaygusuz O, Eser Y, Çolak ÖF 2020 – New locality records of Trichoglossum hirsutum (Geoglossales: Geoglossaceae) based on molecular analyses, and prediction of its potential distribution in Turkey. Current Research in Environmental & Applied Mycology (Journal of Fungal Biology) 10(1), 443–456, Doi 10.5943/cream/10/1/34) and I'd like to use these kind of data for my ecological analysis. However I know nothing about this, but I think I can learn. I will appreciate any advice or opinions, or orientations on if I can really learn this, or not, and what I have to do in both cases. I really need help. Thank you.

Thank you for your question. I have not done research in this field using ASTER data. You might need to contact the CURRENT RESEARCH IN ENVIRONMENTAL & APPLIED MYCOLOGY journalist for further assistance.

You can find additional documents for ASTER GDEM V3 data on the LP DAAC web page at: https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/products/astgtmv003/

A Subject Matter Expert has been notified and will get back to you if we can assist you further.
Kind regards,

Our data specialist advised I think the user should contact the lead author, O. Kayzusuz, if he or she is interested in the study. The author's contact information is listed on the paper so he/she should reach out for potential collaboration.

Hope this helps.
