Biodiversity monitoring represents a major challenge to supporting proper forest ecosystem management and biodiversityconservation. The latter is indeed shifting in recent years from single-species to multi-taxon approaches. However, multi-taxonomicstudies are quite rare due to the effort required for performing field surveys. In this context, remote sensing is a powerful tool,continuously providing consistent and open access data at a different range of spatial and temporal scales. In particular, the Sentinel-2(S2) mission has great potential to produce reliable proxies for biological diversity.

Abstract

Biodiversity monitoring represents a major challenge to supporting proper forest ecosystem management and biodiversityconservation. The latter is indeed shifting in recent years from single-species to multi-taxon approaches. However, multi-taxonomicstudies are quite rare due to the effort required for performing field surveys. In this context, remote sensing is a powerful tool,continuously providing consistent and open access data at a different range of spatial and temporal scales. In particular, the Sentinel-2(S2) mission has great potential to produce reliable proxies for biological diversity.
