Ice Cores , High - Mountain Glaciers , and Climate
The near-global retreat of high-mountain glaciers and the shrinkage of ice fields and ice caps and retreat of their associated outlet glaciers are perhaps the most visible evidence for 20th-century climate change and the recent increase in the globally averaged near-surface temperatures of the Earth’s surface. The loss of high-mountain glaciers—including ice fields, ice caps, and other glaciers...
متن کاملSeamless Mapping System for High Resolution Imagery
Digital Photogrammetry is the quality leap in the means, ability, efficiency and agility of spatial information acquirement. Digital Photogrammetric Workstation (DPW) is the mainstream product of Digital Photogrammetry System. Nowadays DPW plays important roles in acquiring spatial data. With the emergence of high resolution sensor, such as IKONOS, QuickBird, SPOT5 and ADS40, the traditional DP...
متن کاملMapping mountain meadow with high resolution and polarimetric SAR data
This paper presents a method to map the large grassland in the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau with the high resolution polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) imagery. When PolSAR imagery is used for land cover classification, the brightness of a SAR image is affected by topography due to varying projection between ground and image coordinates. The objective of this paper is twofold: (1) we first exte...
متن کاملImproved coastal wetland mapping using very-high 2-meter spatial resolution imagery
Accurate wetland maps are a fundamental requirement for land use management and for wetland restoration planning. Several wetland map products are available today; most of them based on remote sensing images, but their different data sources and mapping methods lead to substantially different estimations of wetland location and extent. We used two very high-resolution (2 m) WorldView-2 satellit...
متن کاملMapping invasive woody plants in Azores Protected Areas by using very high-resolution multispectral imagery
We assessed the effectiveness of very high spatial resolution IKONOS imagery for mapping a top invasive woody plant, Pittosporum undulatum, in a Protected Area in S.Miguel Island. We developed a segmentation-based classification scheme. A strong separability between most important land cover classes and a high accuracy in supervised classification maps was achieved. Overall separability improve...
