Remote Sensing for Environmental Sustainability and Climate Change - Session 1

Conveners: Arnon Karnieli, BGU, and Tarin Paz-Kagan, BGU

This session will be in memory of Nathan Levi (ז”ל)

Evidence of the rapid degradation of the Earth’s natural environment is getting stronger each year and sustaining our planet has become the most significant concern faced by humanity. In this regard, remote sensing has become an essential geospatial tool for understanding the Earth and managing human-Earth interactions. This session aims to present novel studies and discuss various dryland environmental issues implemented by Earth observations. Furthermore, to present the state-of-the-art remote sensing knowledge monitoring the drylands’ natural resources and environments, managing exposure to natural disasters and manmade risks, and helping understand the sustainability and productivity of natural ecosystems.
