Editorial: Remote sensing advances in biodiversity and ecosystem functioning research.

This article discusses the use of remote sensing technology in biodiversity and ecosystem functioning research. It highlights the importance of understanding the variation of biodiversity across scales and the role of remote sensing in monitoring and predicting ecosystem patterns and processes. The article presents various studies that utilize remote sensing techniques, such as high-resolution mapping, mobile technology, and UAV-based approaches, to observe and manage diverse ecosystems. It also explores the assessment of ecosystem functioning at large scales and the analysis of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning under environmental changes. The findings emphasize the significance of spatial analysis, remote sensing technologies, and tailored conservation strategies for effective ecosystem management. [Extracted from the article]
