TOPOGRAPHIC EFFECT ON SPECTRAL VEGETATION INDICES FROM LANDSAT TM DATA: IS TOPOGRAPHIC CORRECTION NECESSARY? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The full potentiality of spectral vegetation indices (VIs) can only be evaluated after removing topographic, atmospheric and soil background effects from radiometric data.

Effects of Caffeine on Topographic Quantitative EEG

open access: yesNeuropsychobiology, 2002
Despite the widespread use of caffeine as a central nervous stimulant, the central pharmacodynamic properties of the drug have not yet been conclusively evaluated in humans. The present study was undertaken to assess the acute effects of caffeine on measures of topographical quantitative electroencephalogram (EEG) in normal subjects.

Topographic Effects of Microstructured Biosensors [PDF]

open access: yesECS Transactions, 2008
Biosensors utilizing whole, living cells often rely on the adhesion of cells to the sensor surface. The effect of microstructures on human epithelial cells has been investigated. Microstructures were fabricated in a silicon substrate utilizing optical lithography and deep reactive ion etching.

局部山体地形对断层动力学破裂过程的影响研究

open access: yesDizhen xuebao, 2018
基于曲线网格有限差分方法研究了垂直走滑断层在不同山体地形情况下的动力学破裂传播,分析并讨论了局部山体地形对断层破裂过程及相应地面地震动的影响,得到了各模型断层面的动力学破裂过程及相应的地表峰值速度特征。研究结果表明,山体地形尺度(山体高度及底部延展距离等)对断层动力学破裂过程影响较大,进而影响到相应的地面地震动分布。当山体地形处于自由地表上亚剪切向超剪切转换的位置附近时,山体地形会阻碍断层面上自由地表超剪切的产生。一般而言,对于具有一定埋深的断层,当山体地形底部延展距离一定时,山体高度越高 ...

A Correction Method of NDVI Topographic Shadow Effect for Rugged Terrain

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
The influence of solar altitude and azimuth angles makes shadows prevalent in remote sensing images of rugged terrains. Consequently, the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) of the shadow areas is much lower than that of sunlit areas—a ...

Topographic Correction of the SELENE MI Images with the LOLA DEM around Shackleton Crater

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Due to the complicated terrain and extreme illumination condition in the lunar south polar region, topography has an impact on the reflectance of the area. This may result in the misinterpretation of the properties of the lunar surface.

INFLUENCE OF HILLS AND VALLEYS ON FREE SURFACE SLIP AMPLIFICATION IN DYNAMIC RUPTURE ON A DIPPING FAULT

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика
Dynamic rupture scenarios on various fault geometries are studied extensively in the literature for domains with the planar top surface. However, landscapes on the earth, particularly in tectonic regimes, can undulate upwards or downwards depending on ...
