The study "Mangrove degradation assessment using WorldView-2 imagery for Mekong delta, Vietnam" reported research findings on mangrove degradation assessment using WorldView2-based NDVI and NDVI differencing techniques. NDVI was estimated through analysis of satellite images band ratio to give an indication of greenness and healthy forests. The findings contribute to identifying areas with high levels of degradation that need to prioritize restoration and conservation solutions.

Quang Truc forest (QTF) is a remote area in the South-West of Dak Nong province, Vietnam, which is well known for valuable timber species representative for central highland of Vietnam with different globally and nationally threatened species. However, the general understanding of plant diversity of QTF has been still poorly known. The objectives of this paper are to figure out the plant diversity of QTF and compare that with other protected forest areas in Dak Nong province, in order to provide scientific evidences for conservation and sustainable development.
