This paper reviews the current status and development of remote sensing methods for
monitoring rangeland condition. Remote sensing offers ideal solutions for assessing …

A few decades ago, farmers could precisely monitor their croplands just by walking over the
fields, but this task becomes more difficult as farm size increases. Precision viticulture can …

An increase in shrubs or woody species is likely, directly or indirectly, to significantly affect

Palm oil has become one of the most consumed vegetable oils in the world, and it is a key
element in profitable global value chains. In Costa Rica, oil palm cultivation is one of the …

Bridging remote-sensing ecosystem indices with biodiversity conservation implies
converting these indices into habitat quality indicators for species playing an important role …

This study combined Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR), Sentinel-2 multispectral, and
site variable datasets to model leaf area index (LAI) and basal area per ha (BAPH) of two …

Land degradation is defined as the reduction of biological and economic productivity, which
impedes the capacity of the land to provide ecosystem services. There is a need to move …

Abstract Information on weed occurrence within croplands is vital but is often unavailable to
support weeding practices and improve cropland productivity assessments. To date, few …

Bush encroachment threatens rangelands' biodiversity and productivity, impacting savannah
ecosystems based on location, management practices, and factors like erratic rainfall …

Climate change-induced mortality of trees is a concerning phenomenon for global forest
ecosystems. The rapid decay and death of long-lived trees can significantly impact forest …
