This grant is for advancing remote sensing capabilities for coastal environmental management. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Wetlands Research Center seeks proposals to develop and integrate radar and optical remote sensing techniques. The primary purpose is to enhance mapping and monitoring of coastal ecosystems, particularly for flood inundation and canopy structure. While focusing on the northern Gulf of Mexico, the expected technological advancements will have direct global implications for remote sensing of coastal resources. This initiative aims to improve environmental understanding and management through innovative scientific methods.
