Salt marsh productivity is an important control of resiliency to sea level rise. However, our
understanding of how marsh biomass and productivity vary across fine spatial and temporal …

The optimization of crop nitrogen fertilization to accurately predict and match the nitrogen (N)
supply to the crop N demand is the subject of intense research due to the environmental and …

The monitoring of forest phenology in a cost-effective manner, at a fine spatial scale and
over relatively large areas remains a significant challenge. To address this issue, unmanned …

Continuing population growth will result in increasing global demand for food and fiber for
the foreseeable future. During the growing season, variability in the height of crops provides …

Coastal wetland biomass is an important indicator of wetland productivity, carbon storage,
