Mapping Lower Saxony’s salt marshes using temporal metrics of multi-sensor satellite data
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2022 Salt marshes act as an important natural buffer in terms of coastal protection in the light of the rising sea level. Due to weather events like extreme storms the extent of salt marshes changes. Hence, it is of great importance to regularly monitor these
