Ecogeomorphological Transformations of Aeolian Form—The Case of a Parabolic Dune, Poland

The range of natural environmental degradation caused by anthropogenic activity may include geomorphological forms such as dunes resulting from the build-up wind. In effect, transformation affects changes connected not only with their relief, but also presence and health diverse plant animal inhabitants. subject survey was a parabolic dune asymmetric shape, sand which subjected to exploitation over many years. Terrain data acquired means GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) served elaborate present relief surveyed reconstruct its primary relief. These were mainly places where impacts human activities recorded. For this purpose, ordinary kriging (OK) estimation performed. Simultaneously, satellite UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) imaging acquired, image fusion in order acquire near infrared bands (NIR), red, green, blue high spatial resolution. turn applied so estimate condition vegetation overplanting surrounding terrain. correctness modelling verified cross-validation (CV), disclosed low error values. Such values were, respectively, mean (ME) at −0.009 −0.014, root square (RMSE) 0.564 0.304 standardised (RMSSE) 0.999 1.077. Image fusion, use pansharpening allowed colour-infrared composition (CIR) Modified Chlorophyll Absorption Reflectance Index 1 (MCARI1) be obtained. Their analysis that on is characterised worse compared area thereof. proposed approach enabled analysed, thereby it allows for determination consequences further uncontrolled recovery without taking into account historical cartographic materials customarily considered main source information.
