Using NDSI and Band Ratio Method Snow Cover Area Detection: A Case Study
Glaciers are a main source of water during summer in Himalayan areas. Corresponding to the historical studies, glacier is directly affected by climate change. It is important to identify change in snow cover area (Glacier area) to identify change in glacier. Remote sensing and GIS technology are used to monitor Snow covered area.

A New Approach to Monitoring Coastal Marshes for Persistent Flooding [PDF]
Many areas in coastal Louisiana are below sea level and protected from flooding by a system of natural and man-made levees. Flooding is common when the levees are overtopped by storm surge or rising rivers. Many levees in this region are further stressed

Computer programs to predict induced effects of jets exhausting into a crossflow [PDF]
A user's manual for two computer programs was developed to predict the induced effects of jets exhausting into a crossflow. Program JETPLT predicts pressures induced on an infinite flat plate by a jet exhausting at angles to the plate and Program JETBOD,
