Potential of C and X Band SAR for Shrub Growth Monitoring in Sub-Arctic Environments
Remote Sensing, 2015 The Arctic and sub-Arctic environments have seen a rapid growth of shrub vegetation at the expense of the Arctic tundra in recent decades. In order to develop better tools to assess and understand this phenomenon, the sensitivity of multi-polarized SAR ...

Land Use and Land Cover Dynamics in Guraferda District, Southwest Ethiopia
Blue Nile Journal of Agricultural Research, 2021 In Ethiopia, land use land cover dynamics is one of the major environmental problems. Agricultural expansion has a great role on the changes of land use and land cover in southwest Ethiopian landscapes. This study was therefore carried out to examine the
