Introduction
Set up in 2008, the Laboratory of Coastal Information Integration and Application (LCIIA-YIC) consists of fourteen full-time members and four part-time members with different research backgrounds that related to coastal science such as ocean remote sensing, physical oceanography, geographic information system, hydrology, ecology etc.
The research area of LCIIA-YIC now mainly focuses on two fields, the first one is the coastal resource and environment change monitoring and prediction by integration of space-based earth observation data, ground-based observation data and field experiment data based on Remote Sensing (RS) , Geographic Information System (GIS) and Global Positioning System (GPS) technologies. The second one is the coastal sustainable development study, which will put emphasis on coastal Land Use and Land Cover Change (LUCC), Urbanization, Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) and so on. Both these two fields aim to promote sustainable development in coastal zone and give services to the related administration sections of local governments and communities for decision-making.
