Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to submit a manuscript to this Special Issue of Remote Sensing highlighting new techniques, applications and/or results of implementing Earth Observations in monitoring and analyzing agriculture in the developing world. More specifically, we are seeking publishable research in using satellite data along with satellite-derived and modeled products to identify or estimate cropped area, crop yields, and/or production in the developing world. Along with the direct analysis of these products, we also look forward to submissions highlighting the impacts of agricultural shortfall in the developing world.
We think this special issue will highlight the value of remote sensing in these locations, and push the state-of-the-practice for agricultural monitoring in these vulnerable areas.
Dr. Gregory J. Husak
Guest Editor
