Abstract:

This thesis tests a technique based on objectively identified tropical cloud regimes, in which some cloud characteristics are extrapolated from a single site in the tropics to the entire tropics. Information on cloud top pressure, cloud optical thickness and total cloud cover from 1985-2000 has been derived from the ISCCP D1 data set and has been used to create maps of tropical cloud regimes and maps of total cloud cover over the tropics. The distribution and characteristics of the tropical cloud regimes has been discussed after which total cloud cover values were extrapolated to the cloud reg

Abstract:

The Antarctic ice sheet mass budget is a very important factor for global sea level. An understanding of the glacial dynamics of the Antarctic ice sheet are essential for mass budget estimation. Utilizing a surface velocity field derived from Radarsat three-pass SAR interferometry, this study has investigated the strain rate, grounding line, balance velocity, and the mass balance of the entire Lambert Glacier Â Amery Ice Shelf system, East Antarctica. The surface velocity increases abruptly from 350 m/year to 800 m/year at the main grounding line. It decreases as the main ice stream is floati

Abstract:

Large-scale mapping of forest AGB is a challenging task and crucial for forest management and planning. The use of SRS data has recently increased for AGB prediction due to their large footprint and low cost availability. There are various limitations and problems with SRS data that require innovative and effective solutions for large-scale AGB mapping. This thesis provides three main contributions in the context of using SRS for AGB prediction. The first contribution of the thesis involves the use of SMS data characterized by different spectral specifications, spatial resolutions and temporal

Supervised classification of satellite imagery largely removes the user from the information extraction process. Visualisation is an often ignored means by which users may interactively explore the complex patterns and relationships in satellite imagery.

The Quaternary geology of West County Mayo, Ireland, has appeared in the literature over 30 times since Close's account in 1867. Various glacial reconstructions have been proposed due to i) the complex sedimentology and morphology of the area, ii) different approaches having been adopted by researchers iii) models being tainted by theory-laden evidence as different glaciological concepts were in vogue at the time of publication.

Abstract:

Several genera of bacteria residing in the sea surface microlayer and in the near-surface layer of the ocean have been found to be involved in the production and decay of surfactants. Under low wind speed conditions, surfactants can suppress short gravity capillary waves at the sea surface and form natural sea slicks. These features can be observed with both airborne and satellite-based synthetic aperture radar (SAR). Using a new microlayer sampling method, a series of experiments have been conducted in the Straits of Florida and the Gulf of Mexico in 2013 to establish a connection between the

This is the first time the RA-2 has been used to assess the elevation changes of ice caps - targets much smaller than the ice sheets which are the instrument’s primary land ice targets. Algorithms for the retrieval of elevation change rates over ice caps using data acquired by RA-2 and GLAS are presented. Th

Habitat loss is widely acknowledged as the leading cause of extinctions and is occurring at an alarming rate and affecting biodiversity globally. I measured the rate of habitat loss using satellite-based land cover change data. First, I modelled the potential suitable habitat of the Marbled Murrelet on Vancouver Island using two techniques and compared those results to in-situ field measurements. Both modelling techniques predicted declines in suitable habitat between the years, although one technique was better at predicting suitable habitat.

Synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) is a technique that enables generation of Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) and detection of surface motion at the centimetre level using radar signals transmitted from a satellite or an aeroplane. Deformation observations can be performed due to the fact that surface motion, caused by natural and human activities, generates a local phase shift in the resultant interferogram. The magnitude of surface deformation can be estimated directly as a fraction of the wavelength of the transmitted signal. Moreover, differential InSAR (DInSAR) eliminates the

Abstract:

Multispectral aerial and satellite remote sensing plays a major role in crop yield prediction due to its ability to detect crop growth conditions on spatial and temporal scales in a cost effective manner. Many empirical relationships have been established in the past between spectral vegetation indices and leaf area index, fractional ground cover, and crop growth rates for different crops through ground sampling. Remote sensing-based vegetation index (VI) yield models using airborne and satellite data have been developed only for grain crops like barley, corn, wheat, and sorghum. So it becomes

Abstract:

Measuring the composition of the planetary boundary layer is essential for monitoring pollutants and for understanding their impact on environment and health. Nadir satellite remote sensing is particularly appealing to sound this part of the atmosphere, but is however challenging because pollutants concentrations are generally weak and confined in a small part of the atmospheric column. Among the sounders currently in orbit, those operating in the thermal infrared have usually their maximum sensitivity in the mid-troposphere, and are thought to be inadequate to measure the near-surface atmosph
