Preface: Remote Sensing in Coastal Environments
The Special Issue (SI) on “Remote Sensing in Coastal Environments” presents a wide range of articles focusing on a variety of remote sensing models and techniques to address coastal issues and processes ranging for wetlands and water quality to coral reefs and kelp habitats. The SI is comprised of twenty-one papers, covering a broad range of research topics that employ remote sensing imagery, m...
متن کاملRemote Sensing for Marine and Coastal Environments
A scanning lidar system provides high-resolution two-dimensional measurements of ocean wave displacement. The airborne operation further enhances the speed of data acquisition. These properties allow rapid characterization of the ocean wave environment. In addition to active ranging, the scanning optics can obtain passive measurements of surface emissivity, yielding a digital image of the surfa...
متن کاملPreface: Remote Sensing of Biodiversity
Since the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, the importance of biological diversity in supporting and maintaining ecosystem functions and processes has become increasingly understood [1]. Biodiversity “connects the web of life,” that is, biodiversity represents the diversity of species in an ecosystem, landscape, region and globe. It is their combined interactions, with each other and their e...
متن کاملPreface: Remote Sensing of Water Resources
The Special Issue (SI) on “Remote Sensing of Water Resources” presents a diverse range of papers studying remote sensing tools, methods, and models to better monitor water resources which include inland, coastal, and open ocean waters. The SI is comprised of fifteen articles on widely ranging research topics related to water bodies. This preface summarizes each article published in the SI.
متن کاملRemote Sensing of Coastal Ecosystem
Ecosystem is a unit of ecological community, comprised of biological, physical, and chemical components. The coastal ecosystem is the region of highly dynamic, diverse and productive region on the earth due to the combined action of physical features and bio-chemical processes from land and ocean. Coastal habitats perform a variety of important functions within the ecosystem and support the lif...
