In the context of increasing environmental pressures and socioecological challenges, accurate monitoring of land degradation is crucial to achieving Land Degradation Neutrality under the Sustainable Development Goals framework.

This talk, given by聽Narcisa Pricope, explores the integration of multiscale remote sensing, geospatial analysis, and socioeconomic data to quantify and assess land degradation across diverse ecosystems, from Southern Africa鈥檚 semiarid savannas to North America鈥檚 rangelands. Using advanced data fusion techniques, such as UAS-based LiDAR, multispectral imagery and socioecological indicators, we can generate more comprehensive insights into the complex dynamics of land degradation and inform targeted policy and land management interventions. This multisource approach not only improves monitoring accuracy but also enables the coproduction of actionable knowledge with local communities and stakeholders, thus supporting climate resilience and sustainable land management practices.
