Key Points

This research aims to develop a reproducible workflow for mapping aquatic macrophytes in the Nemunas River basin using remote sensing.
Utilized Sentinel-2 imagery for data collection
Applied phenology-based NIR reflectance thresholds for macrophyte identification
Developed structural typology for macrophytes
Classified temporal regimes based on macrophyte coverage over time
Successfully mapped macrophyte coverage across the basin from 2017 to 2024
Identified distinct structural types of macrophytes
Classified temporal changes in macrophyte dynamics over the study period

Abstract

This repository provides a fully reproducible workflow for mapping and analysing aquatic macrophyte coverage in the Nemunas River basin (2017–2024) using Sentinel-2 imagery and phenology-based NIR reflectance thresholds. The workflow covers macrophyte identification, structural typology development, and temporal regime classification.
