Recent Advances in Remote Sensing and Geoinformation Processing for Land Degradation Assessment

With a specific focus on desertification and land degradation, this volume covers the assessment of related biophysical indicators, as well as complementary qualitive information at different spatial and temporal scales. It shows how remote sensing data may be utilized in the context of assessing and monitoring affected ecosystems and how this information may be assimilated into integrated interpretation and modelling concepts. The volume is of interest to those working at the interface of ecosystem services, land degradation/desertification, spatial ecology, remote sensing and spatial modelling.
