چکیده
this study determined some spectral characteristics and relationship between landsat spectral reflectance and soil surface color in the arid region of iran (kashan). the study carried out in the kashan area that covers 90000 ha. consisting of mountain, hills and flood plain. enhanced thematic mapper (etm+) data collected on july 2002 were used for this research. the color composite images produced from etm+7, etm+4 and etm+2 as red, green and blue respectively used in order to choose sample sites. the twelve sample sites were chosen based on resampled 3*3 pixels (90*90 m). in each site, the soil surface conditions and the munsell color of the soil surface were investigated in the field. some physico-chemical properties of soil samples were also determined in the laboratory. soil surface particle sizes were categorized into three classes: bare soil 2mm in diameter and vegetated soil. the results of this study indicates that munsell notation of hue, value and chroma are significantly correlated to the visible bands of landsat (etm+) data. from this study it may be concluded that visible reflectance of landsat can be used to estimate soil color, if very precise result is not expected .more investigation are necessary in order to improve the obtained results.

متن کاملEvaluating different spectral indices in identification and preparation of soil salinity mapping of arid region of Iran
Soil salinity undergoes significant spatial and temporal variations; therefore, salinity mapping is difficult, expensive, and time consuming. However, researchers have mainly focused on arid soils (bare) and less attention has been paid to halophyte plants and their role as salinity indicators. Accordingly, this paper aimed to investigate the relationship between soil properties, such as electr...
متن کاملCatchment-scale spatial variability analysis of soil hydro-physical properties in a semi-arid region of Iran
Soil hydrau-physical data are important for many hydrological modelings. They are the main variables controllingthe key processes such as water and chemicals movement and transport in the soil profiles. This study was conductedin order to analyze the spatial distribution of selected soil hydrau-physcial characteristics including infiltration rate(IR), saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks), bulk...
متن کاملApplicability of the Thermal Infrared Spectral Region for the Prediction of Soil Properties Across Semi-Arid Agricultural Landscapes
In this study we tested the feasibility of the thermal infrared (TIR) wavelength region (within the atmospheric window between 8 and 11.5 μm) together with the traditional solar reflective wavelengths for quantifying soil properties for coarse-textured soils from the Australian wheat belt region. These soils have very narrow ranges of texture and organic carbon contents. Soil surface spectral s...
