The high-grade uranium deposits in the Xiemisitan area, northwestern China, are genetically associated with the faulting of felsic volcanic or sub-volcanic rocks. Ferric iron alteration indicates that oxidizing hydrothermal fluids percolated through the rocks. In this study, we measured the gamma-ray intensities of rocks in the Xiemisitan area and we propose a hybrid method for the mapping of f...

Despite the tremendous attention given to conservation projects in the Neotropics, few published studies have documented remote sensing studies in tropical highland areas. Even fewer publications have addressed the use of topographic normalization methods in these regions. This article discusses the influence of anisotropic reflectance patterns on land cover classification for two study areas c...

This paper de s c ribes a context based technique for smoothing digital thematic maps produced by multispec tral classification of Landsat Thematic Mapper data . The output of this technique i s a "maplike" product which can be directly used as input to a geographic information system.

the northwestern part of the kerman cenozoic magmatic arc (kcma) contains many areas with porphyry copper mineralization. in this research, we used the advanced space-borne thermal emission and reflection radiometer (aster) and enhanced thematic mapper plus (etm+) images of this region to map the distribution of hydrothermally altered rocks, based on their mineral assemblages. the spectral meas...
