REMOTE SENSING OF AMAZONIAN FORESTS: MONITORING STRUCTURE, PHENOLOGY AND RESPONSES TO ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES
Main Article Content
Abstract
quantifying the impacts of natural and human-induced environmental changes on this ecosystem. This review highlighted the importance of the combined use of optical and microwave data and of the integration of the remote sensing products with the fi eld-based information for understanding the functioning of Amazonian ecosystems, its composition and the stressing factors (e.g., deforestation, fi re, droughts) that can directly impact this biome.
