"The objective of this Conference on Remote Sensing of the Chesapeake Bay is to identify the primary environmental problems of the Chesapeake Bay area and determine the extent to which remote sensing can contribute to the solution of these problems. This volume and the conference it records will focus on ten major problem areas present in the Chesapeake Bay area. These areas include: Pollution-Industrial Wastes; Pollution-Air; Pollution-Agricultural Sedimentation and Wastes; Estuarine Turbidity, Flushing, Salinity, and Circulation; Extractable Biological Resources; Agriculture and Forestry--Identification, Vigor, and Disease; Recreational Uses; Engineering Changes; Shoreline Activities; and Urban Development and Growth."--Page iii-iv

In this landmark publication, leading experts detail how remote sensing and related geospatial technologies can be used for coastal ecosystem assessment and management. This book is divided into three major parts. In the first part several conceptual and technical issues of applying remote sensing and geospatial technologies in the coastal environment are examined. The second part showcases some of the latest developments in the use of remote sensing and geospatial technologies when characterizing coastal waters, submerged aquatic vegetation, benthic habitats, shorelines, coastal wetlands and watersheds. Finally, the last part demonstrates a watershed-wide synthetic approach that links upstream stressors with downstream responses for integrated coastal ecosystem assessment and management.
