IEEE Earthzine, an online scientific publication, is soliciting articles of 800 to 3,000 words for its 2018 theme on the use of Earth observation data to monitor and quantify forest resources from local to continental scales.
Biological Control Stops Dalmatian Toadflax Invasion Following Wildfires
Biological control is a solution for an exotic invasive weed invasion following a major disturbance caused by wildfires.
Widely Used Fishing Aid Is Polluting Ocean and Needs Better Management
Electronic monitoring could provide data needed to help regulate use of fish aggregating devices.
When Fishing Becomes Harvesting: Tracking Fish Aggregating Devices to Reduce Pollution, Poaching
Satellite tracking of Fish Aggregating Devices helps island states govern waters, collect ocean data.
The ‘Great Grain Robbery’ of 1972
Out of the unsettling agricultural and economic events of 1972, the beginnings of a robust agricultural monitoring program were born.
Live From MTS/IEEE Oceans ‘15
Earthzine is attending and providing updates from the Oceans ’15 conference in National Harbor, Maryland, near Washington, D.C., from Oct. 19-22.
A Colorful Approach to Investigating the Red Sea: LearnEO! Offers a Lesson Plan to Map Phytoplankton Phenology
An online educational tool called Learn EO! works to provide information and training to help put remote sensing data to use in the Red Sea region.
Citizens Observatories: Improving Socio-Economic Relations in the Context of Odor Nuisances
Odors are inevitably generated by human activities, such as industry, agro-business, and sewage plants). For neighbors, this creates discomfort that may be permanent, sometimes unacceptable. How can we turn potential conflict and dilemma of “job or comfort” into a “win-win” relationship?
Supporting a Forest Observation System for Siberia: Earth Observation for Monitoring, Assessing and Providing Forest Resource Information
he monitoring and assessment of the remote Russian forest resources of Siberia is challenging and can only be done by integrating remote sensing techniques. Human and environmental forest disturbances continuously affect changing forest cover and biomass levels. The ZAṔS initiative is prototyping and supporting a forest observation system for Siberia using Earth observation data from European and Russian satellite data providers.
Satellite Monitoring of Toxic Cyanobacteria for Public Health
Because of the many characteristics of cyanobacteria, remote sensing provides an effective monitoring tool. Using satellite data, we can provide forecasts and early warning of the location and extent of algal blooms.
