Light attenuation profiling as an indicator of structural changes in coastal marshes
To best respond to natural and human-induced stresses, resource managers and researchers require remote sensing techniques that can map the biophysical characteristics of natural resources on regional and local scales. The implementation of advanced measurement techniques would provide significant improvements in the quantity, quality, and timeliness of biophysical data useful in understanding the sensitivity of vegetation communities to external influences. In turn, this biophysical data would provide resource planners with a rational decision-making system for resource allocation and response action development planning.
