520			_a"Sundarbans, a UNESCO heritage site, is the world's largest single chunk of mangroves distributed on the Indian and Bangladesh coast. The mangroves and associated ecosystems are one of the most fertile ecosystems of the earth. "Sundarbans Mangrove Systems: A Geo-Informatics Approach" portrays different approaches of studying Sundarbans and Mangroves using geospatial analysis. This book highlights the major issues with Sundarban mangrove forest, its future conservation strategies and its ecological importance using geo-informatics technology. It explains usage of remote sensing data for providing information about the present state of mangrove and their tropic status including assessment in terms of extent, density of community, condition, diversity, identifying potential habitats and heterogeneity. Furthermore, it discusses use of hyperspectral remote sensing data for species level classification of mangrove, community zonation for biodiversity assessment and for preparing management plans for conservation. Features : Exclusively covers the ecological state of Sundarbans (mangrove systems) through geo-informatic studies. Describes application of a combination of geomorphological, biogeochemical and remote sensing methods to the analysis of temporal changes. Includes environmental factors affecting the health and decline of mangroves. Covers biodiversity and ecological controls in mangrove ecosystem. Discusses remote sensing approach for tropical forested island and mangrove mapping This book aims at graduate students and researchers in environmental sciences, ecology, marine sciences, biology, geosciences and GIS/Remote Sensing areas"-- _cProvided by publisher.
