总结:Remote sensing technologies offer significant potential for monitoring mangrove ecosystems, which serve as invaluable hubs of biodiversity and providers of crucial ecosystem services (ESs). In the face of mounting threats from human activities and climate change, effective monitoring becomes paramount to safeguarding their health and the services they offer. Remote sensing and Earth observation techniques present exceptional opportunities for monitoring mangrove ecosystems and their ESs. Despite the successful use of remote sensing and Earth observation-based technologies in mapping and monitoring mangrove ecosystems, few studies have been undertaken to utilize them for assessing mangrove ESs. This paper explores the vast potential of remote sensing and Earth observation in monitoring mangrove ecosystems and assessing their ESs. Through a comprehensive review and discussion of relevant scientific literature, researchers also have employed various sensors to study carbon stocks, species diversity, biomass, and related topics. These findings provide a set of values data essential for protecting, preserving, and conserving these ecosystems and their resources, thereby facilitating better management, planning, and policymaking. By leveraging these technologies, policymakers, scientists, and conservationists can make informed decisions to conserve mangrove ecosystems and ensure their long-term viability. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
