Most of the existing literature on the unfavourable consequences of global warming for land are based on a relatively short period of weather station data, covering local land areas with limited networks and monitoring parameters. These concerns have led to the use of satellite data, whose measurements are controlled by such vegetation characteristics as chlorophyll, carotenoids, moisture contents in the plants and temperature inside the vegetation community. Therefore, the discussion of this book is completely based on high-resolution global land surface measurements by the sensors on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration?s (NOAA) operational afternoon polar-orbiting satellites. The book also focuses on understanding climate change impacts on land changes where humans are living, and combines biophysically-grounded methods and the 40-year data to develop models for monitoring large-scale Earth warming impacts on land and for timely prediction of climate consequences for humans. These 40-year trends in land characteristics will help to better inform the assessment of potential changes in the future and how to reach human sustainability. The book will of interest to scientists using satellite remote sensing to track climate change impacts on land over time, as well as students and researchers in climatology and environmental sustainability. . 606 $aGeographic information systems 606 $aEnvironmental monitoring 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aEnvironment 606 $aGeographical Information System 606 $aEnvironmental Monitoring 606 $aEarth System Sciences 606 $aEnvironmental Sciences 615 0$aGeographic information systems. 615 0$aEnvironmental monitoring. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 0$aEnvironment. 615 14$aGeographical Information System. 615 24$aEnvironmental Monitoring. 615 24$aEarth System Sciences. 615 24$aEnvironmental Sciences. 676 $a363.738745612 676 $a551.4 700 $aKogan$b Felix$0921013 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910674348903321 996 $aRemote Sensing Land Surface Changes$93057976 997 $aUNINA
