Sustainable Development Perspectives in Earth Observation offers expert insight into the latest progress made in terrestrial, oceanic, and atmospheric processes, and their interlinkage in the face of changing climate using Earth observation. By addressing the use of advanced datasets, measurement techniques, modeling approaches, analytical protocols, and interpretation methods, the editors have guided the book towards key advances in understanding the evolving dynamics of ecosystems, including coasts, exposure to extreme weather events, and advances in understanding of ocean-atmosphere interactions. Those working towards sustainability through Earth observation will find that this text is a valuable resource for understanding the changing dynamics of the environment in a warming world.

• Analyzes various challenges faced in agricultural research and education, crop production forecasting, agroforestry, vegetation phenology, forest cover resilience, high altitude wetlands, aerosols, greenhouse gases and coastal management
• Explores ocean-atmosphere interactions, modes of climate variations, such as El Nino and Indian Ocean Dipole, extreme events, tropical cyclone, summer monsoon, and distribution of organic matter and their interlinks among various ocean-atmosphere phenomena
• Examines various biogeophysical processes using Earth observation for better climate mitigation and adaptation
