Scrubbing Up: Multi-Scale Investigation of Woody Encroachment in a Southern African Savannah
Changes in the extent of woody vegetation represent a major conservation question in many savannah systems around the globe. To address the problem of the current lack of broad-scale cost-effective tools for land cover monitoring in complex savannah environments, we use a multi-scale approach to qua...
