Abstract

The overarching goal of SALDi (South African Land Degradation MonItor) is to implement novel, adaptive, and sustainable tools for assessing land degradation in multi-use landscapes in South Africa. This presentationdemonstrates results from hyper-temporal Sentinel-1 and -2 timeseries concerning woody cover mapping in complex savanna systems, invasive slangbos bushencroachment in grassland areas and regional soil moisture retrievals. Validation has been performed by cross-comparisons, field trips and permanently installed soil moisture networks.
