| Summary: | With the development of remote sensing technology, it will soon become possible to make truly global assessments of the Earth's changing structural and functional properties. In this book, researchers and users of the available technology examine the potential for monitoring individual biological and chemical features of biotic systems as well as for the remote sensing of processes central to biosphere functioning, namely, the exchange of carbon, water, and trace gases. The aim of the book is to offer a synthesis of current methodologies and research problems, covering analysis of all levels of biosphere functioning from the remote sensing of the underlying mechanisms to the detection of structural changes at the vegetation and landscape levels. |
