Remote Sensing of Wetlands Dynamics

Session ID#: 162088

Session Description:
Wetlands ecosystems provide essential services for the subsistence of life on Earth, however, these ecosystems face constant external threats that affect and change their natural processes and dynamics. There are still significant knowledge gaps on multiple aspects, components and interactions of different kinds of wetlands worldwide. Multitemporal earth observations (using passive and active sensors) offer an excellent opportunity to address these knowledge gaps and are sometimes the only source of information in remote and non-instrumented areas. This session focuses on studies that use multitemporal remote sensing data to understand different processes and components (e.g., water dynamics, vegetation changes, disturbances) of wetlands ecosystems (e.g., marshes, swamps, fens, bogs, lakes, ponds) with different regimes (e.g., permanent, temporary), and support the development of new applications for wetlands monitoring and management
