ABOUT BOOK

The present book provides an as yet unprecedented collection of technological advances that could form the basis for future biodiversity weather stations. The book describes a range of approaches that could make biodiversity assessment as easy as measuring temperature or rainfall in a reliable, reproducible manner. There are still quite some more steps to go – but the combination of approaches shown in the book would make it worthwhile to consider carefully when designing the next level of Global Observing Systems.The present book provides an as yet unprecedented collection of technological advances that could form the basis for future biodiversity weather stations.
