Tradeoffs between fine‐scale site measurements and coarse sensory data for long‐term monitoring of pulsed wetlands

Abstract

As anthropogenic activities continue to impact ecosystems around the world, the ability to monitor and manage ecosystem health and function increases in importance. Despite this need for monitoring, management projects are often limited by the funding, time and personnel required to gather field data. These costs only increase when considering large dynamic ecosystems, such as pulsed wetlands, that have spatially and temporally variable habitat conditions, thus requiring frequent field measurements across the landscape.
