Open call for contributions to a monograph on remote sensing
2026-09-21
New monograph in Ecosistemas about "Remote Sensing in Ecology: advances, scales and applications in the age of big data"
ECOSISTEMAS is an open-access scientific journal edited by the Spanish Association of Terrestrial Ecology (AEET) in which both publishing and reading are free. ECOSISTEMAS publishes articles on ecology and the environment in a broad sense. Articles focused on different scales (e.g. organisms, populations, communities, or ecosystems), with different approaches (e.g. paleoecology, ecophysiology, functional ecology, conservation ecology, or eco-evolution), and in different environments are welcome (e.g. terrestrial, aquatic, etc.). ECOSISTEMAS also covers meta-science (science about how we do science) on ecology.
ECOSISTEMAS is published and read free of charge, thanks to the AEET's commitment to the principle of open science.
