Pretty cool!
Can the @NICFISatData be used for wall-to-wall #LandCover mapping of tropical countries? 🤔We think so.😉
Here's a preliminary #EarthEngine #ML-based map of #Belize 🇧🇿's #forest cover using the recently released April 2024 @Planet mosaic data.

Happy World Wetlands Day!
Today is World Wetlands Day! 🌿
Mangroves are part of an incredible wetland ecosystem that people have managed and restored for eons. We’re sharing their expertise in our "Including Local Ecological Knowledge in Mangrove Conservation & Restoration Guide" mangrovealliance.org/news/en…

There are win-wins when scientists collaborate with practitioners, policy-makers and local communities. This is an approach we happily embrace in Belize.

Happy International Women’s Day to @nbood @DrJNSolomon @doc_tellez @belizejules @MoniqueVernonBz @McReefs @BrendaBermanAZ and all of the other women involved in production of our film.
It's really nice that we got this great piece of work published. This is the first of its kind study for Belize.
✨Our paper for the #BelizeBlueCarbon project is now live!✨
Head to authors.elsevier.com/a/1gZAd… to read about Belize's national mangrove carbon stock: 25.7 Tg! So excited for Belize to implement this data into management and policy. Reach out to me if you want to chat🌱 1/3
