Doctoral thesis: Remote sensing to provide more comprehensive assessment of the status of lakes (SYKE 1/25/2012)

	Kari Kallio

Lake monitoring is currently mainly based on on-site sampling and laboratory analysis of samples. In lake-rich regions, however, only a small proportion of lakes can be monitored using conventional methods. Kari Kallio, Senior Researcher at the Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE), has investigated how the remote sensing of lakes from satellites or aircraft can improve the spatial and temporal representativeness of monitoring for his doctoral thesis.
