MRRMaid Monthly SF - 10m - Monthly

Description

The Mesic Resource Restoration Monitoring Aid (MRRMaid) toolbox is a set of satellite-based monitoring tools for dryland mesic ecosystems in the US Intermountain West. Mesic ecosystems include river corridors (rivers, floodplains, and riparian zones), wetlands, wet meadows, and other freshwater environments. The web apps in this toolbox have been designed so that a user can zoom in and out of specific areas, draw polygons for their area of interest, and then show maps and plots of mesic ecosystem change over time. The monthly product shows mesic vegetation and surface water during the growing season.
