Developing spatially and thematically detailed backdated maps for land cover studies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth, 2017
Global or regional land cover change on a decadal time scale can be studied at a high level of detail using the availability of remote sensing data such as that provided by Landsat. However, there are three main technical challenges in this goal.

Landsat commercialization

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1984
The House of Representatives will soon vote on a bill that outlines steps to commercialize the land remote‐sensing system. The bill follows attempts last year to commercialize both the land and meteorological remote sensing satellite systems. Meanwhile, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has received bids from seven private ...

State/federal interaction of LANDSAT system and related technical assistance [PDF]

open access: yes
The history of state involvement in LANDSAT systems planning and related efforts is described. Currently 16 states have visual LANDSAT capabilities and 10 others are planning on developing such capabilities.

Evaluating land–sea linkages using land cover change and coral reef monitoring data: A case study from northeastern Puerto Rico

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Land cover change that leads to increased nutrient and sediment runoff is an important driver of change in coral reef ecosystems. In this study, we combined satellite remote sensing and field monitoring to assess concomitant changes in watershed land cover and coral cover in northeastern Puerto Rico in 2000–2015.

Development of an empirical model for chlorophyll-a and Secchi Disk Depth estimation for a Pampean shallow lake (Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Shallow Pampean lakes are located in the most productive plain of Argentina. They are highly variable in salinity, turbidity and surface area. Laguna Chascomús has been monitored as a representative example of them.

Composition characteristics and metal binding capacity of dissolved organic matter in the agriculture‐dominated Tuhai River

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract An essential part of river ecosystems, dissolved organic matter (DOM) has an enormous effect on the transport and variability of heavy metals. Nonetheless, our understanding of how the DOM affects heavy metal behavior in agricultural rivers remains limited. In this research, the DOM characteristics and effects on heavy metals (Cu2+, Zn2+, and

Estimating the Creation and Removal Date of Fracking Ponds Using Trend Analysis of Landsat Imagery

open access: yes, 2018
Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, is a process of introducing liquid at high pressure to create fractures in shale rock formations, thus releasing natural gas.
