Great Lakes PREVENTION InitiativeRemote Sensing Approaches for Ecosystem MAPPING AND INVENTORY and Restoration
In the context of the landscape (PLANET EARTH), how can you manage or restore any feature
unless you know: Where Is It?
What Is There? How Much Is There?

Focus of Invasive Phragmites Mapping in the coastal Great Lakes
• 130,672 ha (322,891 acres) freshwater emergent wetlands
• within 10km coastline
• Coastal region emergent wetlands most vulnerable to Phragmites invasion• water level
changes• Typha-dominated• wet meadow

Lake Huron Mapping
•775 unique field site visits. • 459 validation, 316
training•Phragmites observed at 29% of sites. (228 of the 775).
• 14% Validation sites• 15% training sites
•Only NWI "Palustrine Emergent" polygons used to generate random points for validation sites of these, only 53% were documented as emergent in the field observations

“Due, in part, to their limited capacity for adaptation, wetlands are considered to be among the ecosystems most vulnerable to
climate change.”Climate Change and Water
IPCC June 2008

So why is Radar so important?
• Daily coverage in 5 years regardless of clouds– We could map wetlands over all of North America
in a week!• Radar sees of water containing features
– Wetlands and vegetation structure• Map water elevation change in wetlands
