Nighttime light observations from remote sensing provide us with a timely and spatially
explicit measure of human activities, and therefore enable a host of applications such as …

We offer a review and research agenda for critical remote sensing, defined as inquiries and
scientific practices cognizant of the embedding of power within the production, analysis, and …

While most research has focused on the legality of global industrial fishing, unregulated
fishing has largely escaped scrutiny. Here, we evaluate the unregulated nature of global …

Common marine spatial planning challenges include lack of data on the marine
environment, high mobility of both animals and humans, and plan implementation …
