The Mekong Basin in Southeast Asia is one of the largest
international river basins in the world. Its abundant natural
resources are shared by six riparian countries and provide the
basis for the livelihoods of more than 75 million people. However,
ongoing socio-economic growth and related anthropogenic
interventions impact the region's ecosystems, and there is an
urgent need for the monitoring of the basin's land surface
dynamics. Remote sensing has evolved as a key tool for this task,
allowing for up-to-date analyses and regular monitoring of
environmental dynamics beyond physical or political boundaries and
at various temporal and spatial scales. This book serves as a forum
for remote-sensing scientists with an interest in the Mekong River
Basin to present their recent basin-related works as well as
applied case studies of the region. A broad range of sensors from
high to medium resolution, and from multispectral to SAR systems,
are applied, covering topics such as land cover/land use
classification and comparison, time series analyses of climate
variables, vegetation structure and vegetation productivity, as
well as studies on flood mapping or water turbidity monitoring.
This book was originally published as a special issue of the
International Journal of Remote Sensing.
