DOI: 10.1016/j.rse.2020.111873
Abstract: Abstract Cropland abandonment is a widespread land-use change, but it is difficult to monitor with remote sensing because it is often spatially dispersed, easily confused with spectrally similar land-use classes such as grasslands and fallow… read more here.
