Journal ArticleDOI

Australian vegetated coastal ecosystems as global hotspots for climate change mitigation

Oscar Serrano, +57 more
TL;DR: This assessment, the most comprehensive for any nation to-date, demonstrates the potential of conservation and restoration of VCE to underpin national policy development for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Book ChapterDOI

Mapping, Monitoring and Modelling Seagrass Using Remote Sensing Techniques

TL;DR: In this article, the types of information on the biophysical properties of seagrass and its surrounding environments, which are able to be measured, mapped, monitored and/or modelled using remote sensing techniques are explained.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessing the potential for satellite image monitoring of seagrass thermal dynamics: for inter-and shallow sub-tidal seagrasses in the inshore Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area, Australia

TL;DR: When refined significantly and tested over larger areas, this approach could be used to monitor seagrass health over large areas in a similar manner to using satellite SST for predicting thermal stress for corals.
DatasetDOI

Benthic and substrate cover data derived from photo-transect surveys in Lizard Island Reef conducted on December 10-15, 2011

TL;DR: Roelfsema et al. as discussed by the authors conducted underwater georeferenced photo-transect surveys at various sections of the reef at Lizard Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia.
Journal ArticleDOI

coastTrain: A Global Reference Library for Coastal Ecosystems

TL;DR: CoastTrain this paper is an ongoing collaborative initiative designed to support sharing of reference data for coastal ecosystems, and is expected to support novel global mapping initiatives, promote validations of independently developed data products and to enable improved monitoring of rapidly changing coastal environments worldwide.
