Written by experts, peer-reviewed to adhere to the strictest standards and highest quality criteria, this book discusses natural and human-caused forest change.

They conclude with a summary of the issues related to detection and mapping of forest disturbances with remotely sensed and GIS data. The book elucidates how the elements presented, from ecological underpinnings, data considerations, change detection method, and pattern analysis, combine into a problem solving, information generating approach.
