Coral reefs are in decline worldwide and monitoring activities are important for assessing
the impact of disturbance on reefs and tracking subsequent recovery or decline. Monitoring …

Seagrass communities provide critical ecosystem and provisioning services for both human
populations and a wide range of associated species globally. However, it has been reported …

Technical advancements have widened the limits of remote sensing in map** shallow
water benthic habitats and bathymetry over the last decades. On the other hand, the needs …

Seagrasses are traversing the epoch of intense anthropogenic impacts that significantly
decrease their coverage and invaluable ecosystem services, necessitating accurate and …

This review evaluates various methods employed to produce seagrass habitat maps using
optical and acoustic remote-sensing (RS) techniques coupled with in situ sampling to …

Seagrass conservation is critical for mitigating climate change due to the large stocks of
carbon they sequester in the seafloor. However, effective conservation and its potential to …

Seagrass ecosystems are inherently dynamic, responding to environmental change across
a range of scales. Habitat requirements of seagrass are well defined, but less is known …

Seagrass meadows are important marine carbon sinks, yet they are threatened and
declining worldwide. Seagrass management and conservation requires adequate …

The spatial and temporal dynamics of seagrasses have been studied from the leaf to patch
(100 m 2) scales. However, landscape scale (> 100 km 2) seagrass population dynamics …

Accurate habitat map** methods are urgently required for the monitoring, conservation,
and management of blue carbon ecosystems and their associated services. This study …
