An integrated research framework on mangrove vegetation structure dynamics, regeneration and restoration was presented in the Forests and Water Issue of ETFRN News 33 (Dahdouh-Guebas, 2001b). It discussed the broad framework in which changes in the vegetation structure of mangrove forests, amongst other research topics, were studied over several decades using remote sensing techniques. This contribution emphasizes ‘why’ such monitoring is necessary and ‘how’ this remote sensing aspect is carried out.
