Estimating the in situ Stratification via Remotely-sensed Internal Wave Speeds

Creator:: Fang, Chufan
Abstract:: This work investigates a methodology for estimating the ocean stratification gradient based on high-resolution, in space and time, remote sensing observations of internal wave propagation speeds. The internal wave speed observations were collected using a shore-based, X-band marine radar and the ocean vertical density profiles were collected simultaneously from an...

Using Satellite Imagery to Count Nesting Albatross from Space

Creator:: Dolliver, Jane E.
Abstract:: One fundamental concern in conservation biology is species abundance. For many taxa, however, these data are costly to obtain via direct observation and thus limited in geographic or temporal scope. Very high-resolution satellite imagery provides a means to address these limitations and provide remotely-sensed counts of large, colonial species. We...

Remote sensing of radiation stress gradients from optical imagery

Creator:: Killian, Jason R.
Abstract:: Wave-induced circulation is the defining characteristic of the nearshore. Within this region, the constant feedback cycle between incoming waves, wave-generated currents, and the mobile sediment bed is responsible for the evolution of complex patterns in nearshore and beach morphology. Central to our understanding of this system is knowledge of the...

Quantification of landslide movement in a forested environment

Creator:: Conner, Jeremy C.
Abstract:: Landslides are an insidious natural hazard, which can result in significant damage to public infrastructure. Limited monitoring tools are available, particularly tools suitable for use in forested environments. These tools often only allow a few locations across the slide to be monitored. Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) shows promise as a...

Spatial analysis of potato canopy nitrogen content using remotely sensed reflectance measurements

Creator:: Stangel, David E.
Abstract:: This study sought to explore the relationship between spatial scale and canopy chemistry through the use of remotely sensed videography data and total nitrogen content of potato petioles. A range of broad band spectral indices were employed along with standard red and green wavelengths to define an optimum scale or...

The use of LiDAR to identify forest transportation networks

Creator:: Beck, Storm J. C.
Abstract:: The production of high value non-conventional products, such as long utility poles; or the production of low value bulky products, such as chips or grindings; provide opportunities for forest owners to increase value from their forests. The transport of these products requires the use of specialized trucks and trailers. However,...

Remote-sensing and geographic information system techniques to map spatial variation of wheat grain yield

Creator:: Roberts, Michael C. (Michael Coy), 1951-
Abstract:: Farmers and researchers are aware of spatial variation in grain yield within farms or fields. Fertilizer management may be improved if techniques can be developed to identify grain yield variations in wheat fields. Aerial color infrared (CIR) photography was used to identify winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) canopy biomass variability...

Identification of layered cloud occurrences from the Lidar In-Space Technology Experiment and advanced very high resolution radiometer imagery

Creator:: Stevermer, Amy J.
Abstract:: Realistic assessment of the vertical distribution of clouds, particularly the occurrence of multi-layered systems, is critical for accurate calculations of radiative transfer in general circulation models. Such information is also useful in the design and improvement of satellite retrieval techniques. Current methods for retrieving cloud properties from satellite data assume...

Seeing the snow through the trees : towards a validated canopy adjustment for satellite fractional snow-covered area

Creator:: Coons, Lexi
Abstract:: Forest canopy cover presents a major challenge for remote sensing of fractional snow-covered area (ƒSCA). Snow cover is systematically underestimated where satellites sensors cannot penetrate the forest canopy. Current canopy adjustments scale observable ƒSCA with the vegetation fraction, assuming that snow cover distributions are similar between sub-canopy and open locations....
