Abstract
Nicolás Younes investigated the phenology of Australian mangroves using satellite imagery, field data, and generalized additive models. He found that satellite-derived phenology changes with location, frequency of observation, and spatial resolution. Nicolás challenges the common methods for detecting phenology and proposes a data-driven approach.
