Challenges in Complementing Data from Ground-Based Sensors with Satellite-Derived Products to Measure Ecological Changes in Relation to Climate-Lessons from Temperate Wetland-Upland Landscapes.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)

Gallant AL, Sadinski W, Brown JF, Senay GB, Roth MF.
PMID: 29547531
Sensors (Basel). 2018 Mar 16;18(3). doi: 10.3390/s18030880.

Assessing climate-related ecological changes across spatiotemporal scales meaningful to resource managers is challenging because no one method reliably produces essential data at both fine and broad scales. We recently confronted such challenges while integrating data from ground- and satellite-based...

Turning the tide: how blue carbon and payments for ecosystem services (PES) might help save mangrove forests.

Ambio

Locatelli T, Binet T, Kairo JG, King L, Madden S, Patenaude G, Upton C, Huxham M.
PMID: 24817088
Ambio. 2014 Dec;43(8):981-95. doi: 10.1007/s13280-014-0530-y. Epub 2014 May 10.

In this review paper, we aim to describe the potential for, and the key challenges to, applying PES projects to mangroves. By adopting a "carbocentric approach," we show that mangrove forests are strong candidates for PES projects. They are...

Linking social, ecological, and physical science to advance natural and nature-based protection for coastal communities.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences

Arkema KK, Griffin R, Maldonado S, Silver J, Suckale J, Guerry AD.

Environ Technol. 2007 Jun;28(6):621-8. doi: 10.1080/09593332808618820.

Two constructed wetland systems, treating domestic wastewater, are compared in terms of performance and costs. One is a free water surface (FWS) wetland system located in Pompia, Crete, south Greece, and the other one is a vertical subsurface flow...

Ecosystem evaluation (1989-2012) of Ramsar wetland Deepor Beel using satellite-derived indices.

Environmental monitoring and assessment

Mozumder C, Tripathi NK, Tipdecho T.
PMID: 25092138
Environ Monit Assess. 2014 Nov;186(11):7909-27. doi: 10.1007/s10661-014-3976-2. Epub 2014 Aug 05.

The unprecedented urban growth especially in developing countries has laid immense pressure on wetlands, finally threatening their existence altogether. A long-term monitoring of wetland ecosystems is the basis of planning conservation measures for a sustainable development. Deepor Beel, a...

Climate change vulnerability in a tropical region based on environmental and socio-economic factors.

Environmental monitoring and assessment

Sarun S, Ghermandi A, Sheela AM, Justus J, Vineetha P.
PMID: 30446838
Environ Monit Assess. 2018 Nov 16;190(12):727. doi: 10.1007/s10661-018-7095-3.

The understanding of the regional and local dimensions of vulnerability due to climate change is essential to develop appropriate and targeted adaptation efforts. We assessed the local dimensions of vulnerability in the tropical state of Kerala, India, using a...

Keeping wetlands wet in the western United States: adaptations to drought in agriculture-dominated human-natural systems.

Journal of environmental management

Downard R, Endter-Wada J.
PMID: 24211568
J Environ Manage. 2013 Dec 15;131:394-406. doi: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2013.10.008. Epub 2013 Nov 08.

Water is critical to protecting wetlands in arid regions, especially in agriculture-dominated watersheds. This comparative case study analyzes three federal wildlife refuges in the Bear River Basin of the U.S. West where refuge managers secured water supplies by adapting...

Valuing natural habitats for enhancing coastal resilience: Wetlands reduce property damage from storm surge and sea level rise.
