Analytical framework for modeling scale-related variabilities in remote sensing

Creator:: Chen, Chaur-fong
Abstract:: A general analytical framework was established to investigate the scale-related variabilities in remote sensing. The variabilities were studied first by investigating canopy structure, canopy interaction with light, relation between spectral reflectance and plant phenological parameters. The variabilities simulated by the plant model were compared with the actual spectral data acquired...

Photosynthesis of conifers : influential factors and potentials for remote sensing

Creator:: Yoder, Barbara J.
Abstract:: Remote sensing offers the potential for monitoring photosynthesis over large temporal and spatial scales. The purpose of this thesis is to provide information that will help to develop methods to predict photosynthesis from the light reflected by canopies. The studies focused on a simple model of canopy photosynthetic potential: Acanopy...

Microwave scattering from surf zone waves

Creator:: Catalán Mondaca, Patricio A.
Abstract:: Wave breaking in the surf zone is an important forcing mechanism on the generation of nearshore currents and in the driving of sediment transport. At the same time, wave breaking can have significant spatial and temporal variability that needs to be accounted for in the description of nearshore processes. Remote...

Water management in the North Deschutes unit irrigation district : geographic perspectives and remote sensing applications

Creator:: Nellis, M. Duane
Abstract:: The North Unit irrigation District of Central Oregon, a water project developed under the guidelines of the Bureau of Reclamation, is characterized by limited water and the need for efficient utilization and control of the irrigation system. To manage the limited water resource, irrigators need a timely and economical method...

Identification of irrigation practices using photographic and optical-mechanical scanning remote sensing techniques

Creator:: Naim, Shamim
Abstract:: Irrigation is essential for profitable agriculture in the western United States. It is the largest consumer of water and power in Oregon. Conflicting uses of water and power and their scarcity demands judicious planning for allocation of these resources. Creditable baseline data are not only needed for irrigated crop acreages,...

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...

Depth estimation and frontal imaging via X-band marine radar

Creator:: Honegger, David Andrew
Abstract:: This dissertation focuses on two core aspects of remote sensing: (a) interpretation of the remotely sensed data to identify and characterize sea surface features of interest, and (b) the quantitative analysis of previously characterized features to produce robust estimates of geophysical variables. Specifically, these aspects are addressed in the context...

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...
