CLOSING REMARKS
Remote sensing is useful tool to discern marine ecosystem changes and driving factors associated with anthropogenic and climatic perturbations Nevertheless, there still exist some gaps, that in certain area/field, remote sensing has not been fully exploited (e.g., HAB detection, etc.) Sea-truth observation is however definitely required in order to be able to fully exploit remote sensing
