Semi-automatic mapping of anthropogenic impervious surfaces in an urban/suburban area using Landsat 8 satellite data

open access: yesGIScience & Remote Sensing, 2017
Impervious surfaces have a significant impact on urban runoff, groundwater, base flow, water quality, and climate. Increase in Anthropogenic Impervious Surfaces (AIS) for a region is a true representation of urban expansion. Monitoring of AIS in an urban

Techniques for estimating impervious surface cover in hydrologic modelling

open access: yes, 2009
Due to their low infiltration rates, impervious surfaces generate large amounts of runoff. This runoff usually has high concentrations of pollutants. The impervious surface cover on a catchment therefore has a significant effect on catchment hydrology ...

Long‐term stability of horizontal bone augmentation at implant sites

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Horizontal bone augmentation is a fundamental surgical procedure in regenerative implant dentistry. In recent decades, this procedure has evolved, enabling clinicians to achieve predictable and stable horizontal bone augmentation that supports dental implant restorations.

Impervious Surface Mapping in Coastal New Hampshire (2005)

open access: yes, 2006
Estimates of impervious surface acreage in 2005 were generated and compared to prior estimates for 1990 and 2000 for a 48-town region in coastal New Hampshire, including the 42 towns within Zones A and B of the New Hampshire Estuaries Project (NHEP) area.

Afforestation priority for multiple objectives at national scale: Italy as a case study

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Afforestation is increasingly recognized as a key strategy to address climate change and ecological degradation, offering multiple ecosystem services. However, strategic planning is needed to ensure that afforestation actions are ecologically effective and economically efficient by targeting areas where ecosystem service provision

Extraction and spatiotemporal analysis of impervious surfaces in Chongqing based on enhanced DeepLabv3+

open access: yesScientific Reports
In this study, Sentinel-2 time series satellite remote sensing imagery and an improved CA-DeepLabV3+ semantic segmentation network were utilized to construct a model for extracting urban impervious surfaces. The model was used to extract the distribution

Monitoring impervious surface sprawl in Shanghai using tasseled cap transformation of landsat data

open access: yes, 2010
Transformation from non-impervious surface to impervious surface changes the landscapes and also changes the ecological and environmental conditions. Detecting impervious surface growth is vital to monitoring urban development and supporting sustainable ...

Return of the ants: investigating temporal and spatial patterns of ant colonization in unsealed schoolyards

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Urban soil unsealing, the removal of impervious surface layers, is increasingly promoted as a habitat restoration strategy to enhance ecosystem resilience in cities. Yet, its potential to support soil biodiversity from the onset remains underexplored.

Extraction of Urban Impervious Surface Using Two-Season WorldView-2 Images: A Comparison

open access: yes, 2016
Although multispectral images acquired during the summer season have been used extensively in impervious surface extraction with relatively high accuracy, the area of impervious surface extracted is generally underestimated. In this study, a quantitative
