Predicting hot spots of aquatic plant biomass in a large floodplain river catchment in the Australian wet-dry tropics

Conservation planning processes and wetland management require spatial estimations of aquatic habitats to support the maintenance of aquatic biodiversity. However, physical access to several wetlands and freshwater habitats can be restricted due to difficult topography and technological limitations associated with ground-based observations. In addition to these constraints, the distribution of some aquatic primary producers in freshwater...
