Marine indicator analysis and selection by satellite images for Climate Change monitoring in the Macaronesia Area, MAC CLIMA project

In this context, within the framework of the MACCLIMA project, the Image Processing and Remote Sensing Group (GPIT) of the Instituto de Oceanografía y Cambio Global of the Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria has worked on establishing the spatio-temporal indicators of climate change on a regional scale. To this end, the analysis and selection of marine indicators for monitoring climate change at a regional level has been carried out, determining: island ecosystems, climate change parameters or indicators, satellites and sensors and the measures or actions to be implemented. In this way, and with the aim of establishing spatial-temporal indicators of climate change on a regional scale, specifically in the Atlantic Archipelagos, the following table has been obtained as a result of the monitoring of specific oceanographic parameters (remote sensing techniques, processing time series of low and medium spatial resolution satellite images and data obtained from surface sensors).
