Benthic Habitat Mapping using Sentinel 2A: A preliminary Study in Image Classification Approach in An Absence of Training Data

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2021
Numerous approaches for deriving benthic habitat mapping from visible spectrums of remotely-sensed imagery have been widely used, but image classification without training data for remote benthic habitat remains a few.

Comparing conservation value maps and mapping methods in a rural landscape in southern Finland

open access: yesLandscape Online, 2015
We tested to what extent conservation value maps are different if the valuation and mapping method is changed. We compared 66 different conservation value and 4 different ecosystem service maps.

Rhodolith Beds Heterogeneity along the Apulian Continental Shelf (Mediterranean Sea)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Rhodolith beds represent a key habitat worldwide, from tropical to polar ecosystems. Despite this habitat is considered a hotspot of biodiversity, providing a suite of ecosystem goods and services, still scarce quantitative information is available thus ...

Intuitively visualizing spatial data from biogeographic assessments: A 3-dimensional case study on remotely sensing historic shipwrecks and associated marine life

open access: yesFrontiers in Climate, 2022
Biogeographic assessments aim to determine spatial and temporal distributions of organisms and habitats to help inform resource management decisions. In marine systems, rapid technological advances in sensors employed for biogeographic assessments allow ...

Mapping for coral reef conservation: comparing the value of participatory and remote sensing approaches

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
Detailed habitat maps are critical for conservation planning, yet for many coastal habitats only coarse‐resolution maps are available. As the logistic and technological constraints of habitat mapping become increasingly tractable, habitat map comparisons

Predictive habitat modelling as a tool to assess the change in distribution and extent of an OSPAR priority habitat under an increased ocean temperature scenario:consequences for marine protected area networks and management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aims of this study were to determine the extent and distribution of an OSPAR priority habitat under current baseline ocean temperatures; to illustrate the prospect for habitat loss under a changing ocean temperature scenario; and to demonstrate the ...
