Sam J. Purkis & Victor V. Klemas 
Remote Sensing and Global Environmental Change [EPUB ebook] 

Sokongan

Remote Sensing plays a key role in monitoring the various
manifestations of global climate change. It is used routinely
in the assessment and mapping of biodiversity over large areas, in
the monitoring of changes to the physical environment, in assessing
threats to various components of natural systems, and in the
identification of priority areas for conservation.
This book presents the fundamentals of remote sensing
technology, but rather than containing lengthy explanations of
sensor specifications and operation, it concentrates instead on the
application of the technology to key environmental systems.
Each system forms the basis of a separate chapter, and each is
illustrated by real world case studies and
examples.
Readership
The book is intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate
students in earth science, environmental science, or physical
geography taking a course in environmental remote sensing. It
will also be an invaluable reference for environmental scientists
and managers who require an overview of the use of remote sensing
in monitoring and mapping environmental change at regional and
global scales.

Samuel J. Purkis (Ph D) is an Associate Professor at the
National Coral Reef Institute, Nova Southeastern University
Oceanographic Center, Florida, USA. Here, he directs a team focused
on remote sensing solutions for the regional-scale appraisal of
shallow-water tropical ecosystems. His experience in the Earth and
Marine Sciences spans more than fifteen years and all of Earth’s
major coral reef provinces, ranging from ecological assessment,
through sophisticated geostatistical modelling, to carbonate
geology.
Victor V. Klemas (Ph D) is Professor Emeritus at the
College of Earth, Ocean and Environment, University of Delaware.
Since 1976 he has directed the university’s Center for Remote
Sensing, where he has pioneered the application of a wide range of
remote sensing techniques to studies of wetland and estuarine
ecosystems along major coasts of the world. He has served on six
scientific committees of the National Research Council (NAS) and
various government advisory panels.
