Coastal Habitat Mapping Along the Tanzania/Mozambique Transboundary Area Using Landsat 5 TM Imagery
Landsat 5 TM imagery was used to study the distribution of coastal habitats along the Eastern African coast, from Mnazi Bay (Tanzania) south to Pemba Bay (Mozambique), across the mouth of the Ruvuma estuary and the Quirimbas archipelago. Eight classes of coastal habitats, adapted from the Ramsar convention classification –intertidal, and subtidal –were mapped at a coarse descriptive resolution ...
متن کاملWater Feature Extraction and Change Detection Using Multitemporal Landsat Imagery
Lake Urmia is the 20th largest lake and the second largest hyper saline lake (before September 2010) in the world. It is also the largest inland body of salt water in the Middle East. Nevertheless, the lake has been in a critical situation in recent years due to decreasing surface water and increasing salinity. This study modeled the spatiotemporal changes of Lake Urmia in the period 2000–2013 ...
متن کاملBlanding's Turtle (Emydoidea blandingii) Potential Habitat Mapping Using Aerial Orthophotographic Imagery and Object Based Classification
Blanding’s turtle (Emydoidea blandingii) is a threatened species under Canada’s Species at Risk Act. In southern Québec, field based inventories are ongoing to determine its abundance and potential habitat. The goal of this research was to develop means for mapping of potential habitat based on primary habitat attributes that can be detected with high-resolution remotely sensed imagery. Using e...
متن کاملHabitat–performance relationships of a large mammal on a predator‐free island dominated by humans
The demographic consequences of changes in habitat use driven by human modification of landscape, and/or changes in climate, are important for any species. We investigated habitat-performance relationships in a declining island population of a large mammal, the moose (Alces alces), in an environment that is predator-free but dominated by humans. We used a combination of demographic data, knowle...
متن کاملAutomatic Habitat Classification Using Aerial Imagery
Habitat classification and its applications (e.g. habitat monitoring, identification of rare species, etcetera) are important challenges researched by environmental bodies and mapping agencies. However, manual habitat classification is labour intensive, costly, subjective and time consuming (Chen and Rau, 1997). From an image processing perspective, habitat classification can be achieved using ...
