| Abstract |
In the coastal tropics and subtropical regions, fragile ecosystems such as deltas, mangrove forests, and swamps are common, whose ecological stability strictly depends on the quality management of hydrological resources at the basin level. The National Hydrographic Basin Council in Cuba, protect the hydrographic basins, considered as the reference unit for the integrated management of water resources. Moreover, the council aims at preventing negative impacts on of these vital ecosystems for their key services to the overall social and economic wellbeing. As an example, the Zaza River basin in the of Province of Sancti Spiritus, the mangrove forest is suffering from significant decay, in particular on the southern coasts. A significant improvement of the water resources sustainable management in Cuba, is a more reliable and timely monitoring. Considering the extreme conditions and the limited accessibility of mangroves, remote sensing and others earth observations techniques represents a suitable tool for monitoring the mangrove forest in coastal areas. In our study, we used a set of 10 multispectral Landsat - 8 OLI images from November 2014 to December 2015. By collecting campaigns on mangroves' phenology, we have: 1) studied the relationships between phenology and spectral behavior of species; and, 2) set up a classification framework to assess the forests composition remotely, with special attention to mangroves. The methodology here implemented could be effectively applied in all coastal natural ecosystems of this island to improve the knowledge about the critical issues of these very fragile ecosystems. |
