Produktbeschreibung

Earth Observation of Soils: Digital Mapping in Sustainable Land Management provides an overview of the latest techniques and Earth observation technologies applied to soil management with a view to improving sustainable land management (SLM). The book details the applications of Earth Observation data for SLM by evaluating their uses in managed and natural environments under different uses and risks (such as natural disasters and climate change). It covers a wide range of soil types and considers increasingly important topics such as soil quality and environmental health, soil organic carbon, and climate change adaptation, among others. This book offers up-to-date applications of Earth Observation technologies and techniques that are ideal for postgraduates, researchers and academics using remote sensing data and geoinformation technologies for soil monitoring.
