special issue in MEE is out – IMPROVING BIODIVERSITY MONITORING USING SATELLITE REMOTE SENSING

August 29, 2018

The MEE special issue organized by Sandra Luque, Nathalie Pettorelli, Petteri Vihervaara, and myself just got published. It covers a range of interesting articles targeting remote sensing application for biodiversity monitoring such as:

  • Understanding and assessing vegetation health by in situ species and remote‐sensing approaches – Lausch – 2018 – Methods in Ecology and Evolution – Wiley Online Library https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111
  • Integration of satellite remote sensing data in ecosystem modelling at local scales: Practices and trends – Pasetto – 2018 – Methods in Ecology and Evolution – Wiley Online Library https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111

or

  • Satellite remote sensing to monitor mangrove forest resilience and resistance to sea level rise – Duncan – 2018 – Methods in Ecology and Evolution – Wiley Online Library https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/2041-210X.12923#.W4aDxlOw-CM.twitter
