Our new Nature Eco Evol article is finally available online. Lead by Andrew Skidmore with an impressive list of great co-authors we stress the importance of earth observation to monitor biodiversity (change) from space in addition to ground based methods. We mainly suggest a set of remote sensing based metrics that can contribute to the biodiversity monitoring system.
