As coastal environments around the world face unprecedented natural
and anthropogenic threats, advancements in the technologies that
support geospatial data acquisition, imaging, and computing have
profoundly enhanced monitoring capabilities in coastal studies.
Providing systematic treatment of the key developments, Remote
Sensing of Coastal Environments brings together renowned scholars
to supply a clear presentation of the state-of-the-art in this
technically complex arena. Edited by a recipient of the prestigious
PECASE award, this book provides unrivaled coverage of the issues
unique to coastal environments. It presents the best available data
for measuring and monitoring coastal zones and explains how
decision makers and resource managers can use this data to address
contemporary issues in coastal zone management. The text
illustrates the latest developments in active remote sensing,
hyperspectral remote sensing, high spatial resolution remote
sensing, the integration of remote sensing and in situ data, and
covers the effects of land-cover and land-use change on coastal
environments. Complete with representative case studies, this
authoritative resource provides a timely snapshot of the wide range
of remote sensing applications in coastal issues to enhance the
understanding of how increasing disturbances to our coastal regions
are affecting the ecological dynamics, biological diversity, and
ecosystem health of our coastal environments.
