This study compares the ASTER Global DEM version 1 (GDEMv1) and version 2 (GDEMv2) for two study sites with distinct terrain and land cover characteristics in western Africa.
The interactions between wind-blown sand transport, pioneer vegetation and succession vegetation in coastal dune fields play an important role in landform development and determine the balance between stabilization and re-activation of these aeolian landscapes.
Because most land-cover types have distinct seasonal changes and corresponding reflectance characteristics in remotely sensed images, the signatures in time-series data are useful for discriminating different land covers.
Spatially distributed air temperature is desired for various scientific studies, including climatalogical, hydrological, agricultural, environmental and ecological studies.
Cities have been expanding rapidly worldwide, especially over the past few decades.
This research investigated the ability of the Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) to map tropical forest in central Sumatra, Indonesia. The study used PALSAR 50 m resolution orthorectified HH and HV data.
Purpose: Why do farmers not take better care of their soils? This article aims to give insight into how farmers look at soil quality management.
Traditional ‘in situ’ measurement techniques often fail to record the spatial distribution of floodplains. In that case, remote sensing provides inexpensive and reliable methodologies to map flooded areas and compute flood damage.
A better understanding of the spatial linkage between the distribution of land vulnerable to degradation and long-term population growth may contribute to sustainable land management of dry regions.
