More DescriptionA systematic treatment of key issues in the coastal environment, this book covers topics such as continental shelves, islands or partially enclosed seas, estuaries, bays, lagoons, beaches, and terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems within watersheds that drain into coastal waters. The chapters introduce applications of high spatial resolution, hyperspectral, LiDAR data and GPS-guided field survey. They cover state-of-the-art developments in remote sensing of coastal environments through representative case studies that employ the most up-to-date technologies. The editor is an expert with extensive research experience and the chapter authors are leading scientists and educators with expertise in this area.
