摘要

由于灌木蚕食(BE),草原和热带稀树草原正在经历转变和退化。对丛林侵蚀的监测一直采用限制性的传统技术,包括实地调查和人工长期观察。由于传统技术的局限性,遥感技术(RS)因其通常具有高精度、高回报间隔、成本效益高和可获得历史数据档案等优点,成为评估丛林侵蚀的一种有吸引力的替代方法。此外,与传统测量技术的快照采集模式相比,遥感技术的另一个优势是能够近乎实时地获取全球相干数据。尽管遥感技术应用广泛,前景广阔,但目前还缺乏对遥感技术在稀树草原和草地生物多样性测绘方面的成功经验、不足之处和最佳做法的重要综述。因此,从广义上讲,多年来这类调查的方向在很大程度上是未知的。本研究试图通过文献计量分析,联系并衡量 RS 在绘制草原和热带稀树草原生态系统 BE 地图方面所取得的进展。研究评估了来自 Web of Science 和 Scopus 数据库的 123 篇经同行评审的英文文献。研究显示,年均出版物增长率为 13.05%,表明在调查期间,草原和热带稀树草原的 RS 和 BE 测绘研究一直在增长。大部分发表的研究来自美国,其余来自南非、中国和澳大利亚。研究结果表明,在草原和热带稀树草原中,使用中粗分辨率数据对 BE 进行了广泛测绘。因此,因变量(航空图像)与自变量(林木覆盖率)之间的关系较弱(r² = 0.324)。这意味着需要通过整合最新的高分辨率数据、机器学习算法和人工智能来改进草地和稀树草原的生物多样性评估。

A bibliometric analysis for remote sensing applications in bush encroachment mapping of grassland and savanna ecosystems

Grasslands and savannas are experiencing transformation and degradation due to bush encroachment (BE). BE has been monitored using restrictive traditional techniques that include field surveys and manual long-term observations. Owing to the limitations of traditional techniques, remote sensing (RS) is an attractive alternative to assess BE because of its generally high precision and return interval, cost-effectiveness, and availability of historical data archives. Furthermore, RS has an added advantage in its ability of acquiring global coherent data in near-real time compared to the snapshot acquisition mode with traditional surveying techniques. Despite its extensive application and vast possibilities, a critical synthesis for RS successes, shortcomings, and best practices in mapping BE in savannas and grasslands is lacking. Thus, broadly, the direction, which this type of investigation has taken over the years is largely unknown. This study sought to connect and measure the progress RS has made in mapping BE in grassland and savanna ecosystems through bibliometric analysis. One hundred and twenty-three peer-reviewed English written documents from the Web of Science and Scopus databases were evaluated. The study revealed 13.05% average annual publication growth, indicating that RS and BE mapping research in grasslands and savannas has been increasing over the survey period. Most published studies came from the USA, while the rest came from South Africa, China, and Australia. The results indicate that BE has been extensively mapped in grasslands and savannas using coarse to medium resolution data. As a result, there is a weak relationship (r² = 0.324) between the dependent variable (aerial images) and the independent variable (percentage of woody cover). This connotes the need to improve BE assessments in grasslands and savannas by integrating recent high-resolution data, machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence.

期刊介绍: Applied Geomatics (AGMJ) is the official journal of SIFET the Italian Society of Photogrammetry and Topography and covers all aspects and information on scientific and technical advances in the geomatics sciences. The Journal publishes innovative contributions in geomatics applications ranging from the integration of instruments, methodologies and technologies and their use in the environmental sciences, engineering and other natural sciences. The areas of interest include many research fields such as: remote sensing, close range and videometric photogrammetry, image analysis, digital mapping, land and geographic information systems, geographic information science, integrated geodesy, spatial data analysis, heritage recording; network adjustment and numerical processes. Furthermore, Applied Geomatics is open to articles from all areas of deformation measurements and analysis, structural engineering, mechanical engineering and all trends in earth and planetary survey science and space technology. The Journal also contains notices of conferences and international workshops, industry news, and information on new products. It provides a useful forum for professional and academic scientists involved in geomatics science and technology.
