The environmental and economic importance of monitoring forests and agricultural resources has allowed remote sensing to be increasingly in the development of products and services responding to user needs. This volume presents the main applications in remote sensing for agriculture and forestry, including the primary soil properties, the estimation of the vegetation’s biophysical variables, methods for mapping land cover, the contribution of remote sensing for crop and water monitoring, and the estimation of the forest cover properties (cover dynamic, height, biomass). This book, part of a set of six volumes, has been produced by scientists who are internationally renowned in their fields. It is addressed to students (engineers, Masters, PhD), engineers and scientists, specialists in remote sensing applied to agriculture and forestry. Through this pedagogical work, the authors contribute to breaking down the barriers that hinder the use of radar imaging techniques. Provides clear and concise descriptions of modern remote sensing methods Explores the most current remote sensing techniques with physical aspects of the measurement (theory) and their applications Provides chapters on physical principles, measurement, and data processing for each technique described Describes optical remote sensing technology, including a description of acquisition systems and measurement corrections to be made

Remote sensing has always played a vital role in the better understanding of the ecosystem. It has developed into an exploratory tool vital to natural science. This volume introduces topics such as climate, hydrology and the Earth's biosphere, which constitute a solid part of remote sensing and inspection. In addition, remote sensing encourages us to understand the ecosystem and its numerous cycles in vast spatial and transitory ranges. This is an important part of land surface survey, particularly in the managing of land and aquatic resources and the identification of ecological changes. The volume mentions that remote sensing technology has greatly improved our capacity to monitor and supervise natural resources, particularly in the fields of agriculture, water resources, and ecosystems. However, despite the considerable progress made in recent times, there are still various fields that have not yet fully realized the benefits of remote sensing, which is an area of ongoing research. Some of the topics captured in this volume include; chapter 1: remote sensing, chapter 2: the use of GIS to map and assess ecosystem services, chapter 3: satellite-based remote sensing for measuring the earth's natural capital and ecosystem services, chapter 4: remote sensing in forest ecology and management, chapter 5: agricultural sensors and their advantages, and chapter 6: use of remote sensing in irrigation monitoring and management among others.

Urbanization which may be broadly defined as the process of expanding urban influence has been taking place more than 6000 years. This text provides methods to help the readers solve their own problems in hydrology and water management. The reader will see that in some fields, (e.g. evapotranspiration, soil - moisture, hydrological modeling) the scientific development is still on the way, while in others operational techniques are already available (e.g. snow melt runoff-model, land use classification and detection of land use changes, flood forecasting and control).

Applications of Remote Sensing in Agriculture contains the proceedings of the 48th Easter School in Agricultural Science, held at the University of Nottingham on April 3-7, 1989. The meeting invites 146 delegates from over 22 countries and contributions to this book come from nine countries. This book generally presents a review of the achievements of remote sensing in agriculture, establishes the state of the art, and gives pointers to developments. This text is organized into seven parts, wherein Parts I-III cover the principles of remote sensing, climate, soil, land classification, and crop inventories. Productivity; stress; techniques for agricultural applications; and opportunities, progress, and prospects in the field of remote sensing in agriculture are also discussed.

This publication presents the results of an international workshop which was organized in Montpellier, France, in December 1995. The purpose of the workshop was to review the state of the art in the use of remote sensing for water resources assessment and management with special reference to operational techniques. Emphasis was given to surface hydrology, with applications for arid and semi-arid areas in developing countries for which such techniques are believed to be of particular relevance. Cette publication presente les resultats d'un atelier international qui a ete organise a Montpellier en decembre 1995 sur le theme ''Teledetection et ressources en eaux''. L'objectif de cet atelier etait de faire le point sur les techniques et methodes operationnelles d'utilisation de la teledetection pour l'evaluation et la gestion des ressources en eaux. L'accent a ete mis sur l'hydrologie de surface et sur des exemples d'application pratique de ces methodes. L'atelier s'est interesse tout particulierement aux problemes des pays arides et semi-arides en developpement pour lesquels ces techniques peuvent representer un atout important."
