Remote Sensing with Landscape Ecology and Landscape Sustainability

Dear Colleagues,

Remote sensing is a dynamically developing field, both in the technological and application level. Landscape ecology is widely recognized to be one of the most significant areas where it is used at an advanced level. Thanks to its properties, remote sensing is an effective way not only for ad hoc monitoring of remote places where it is not easy to perform ground measurements but also for regular, repeatable monitoring of individual landscape components. In a confrontation with destructive methods, it is possible to get an overview of the landscape change easily, effectively, and quickly to any extent and detail.

With the help of remote sensing of the Earth, the state of the landscape at all levels can not only be monitored, but the degree of fulfilment of selected landscape functions or the risk of degradation can also be classified and quantified.

The aim of this work is to extend our knowledge of Landscape Ecology and Landscape Sustainability. This Special Issue provides a place for building a solid knowledge base with a breadth of applicability. It will serve as a source for “best practices” of remote sensing applications in the landscape ecology domain. Studies working with data out of the visible spectrum or solving uncertainty issues are highly welcome.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Remote Sensing is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
