Moon, Alex. "Remote sensing of bathing water quality." Thesis, Middlesex University, 2003. http://eprints.mdx.ac.uk/13422/.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

The European Union (EU) has openly solicited advice on the development of EU bathing water quality policy and made calls for the development of remotely sensed operational real world solutions. This research demonstrates a new approach to estimating water quality using remote sensing and specifically to monitoring bathing water quality by using remote sensing to "flag" failing areas for manual survey. This method meets the environmental demands of the EU, the tourist industry, the water industry and environmental monitoring agencies throughout the world. The results show the genuine potential

Abstract (sommario):

An experiment was conducted to determine whether the water depth (above soil) and soil type would have any influence on the multispectral reflectances of paddy rice, and their calculated vegetation index values. The results showed that, when vegetation cover was low (below 600 grams of dry biomass per square meter), the near infrared (NIR) reflectances decreased very little with water depth. The same was true for red reflectances, but to a lesser degree. Overall the changes were not significant at 0.05 level of significance when the water depth was increased from 2.5 centimeters to 10 centimet

Abstract (sommario):

The development of techniques for the detection of water leaks from underground pipelines is seen as a high profile activity by water companies and regulators. This is due to increasing water demands and problems with current leak detection methods. In this thesis optical reflectance and microwave backscatter were used to identify optimal indices for detecting water leaks amongst a variety of different land cover types at different growth stages. Ground-based surveys and modelling techniques were used to establish optimal wavelengths for detection. Results from these studies suggested that in

Abstract (sommario):

I aim to determine whether or not remote sensing, through multispectral, satellite and digital photography, is a feasible and accurate method for determining drought stress in Fynbos vegetation. I hypothesize that (1) water stress in fynbos is detectable with the use of a remote sensing index, namely NDVI and (2) that the remotely sensed trends will correlate with ground truth measures of water stress.

Abstract (sommario):

Techniques are developed for the visual interpretation of drainage features from satellite imagery. The process of interpretation is formalised by the introduction of objective criteria. Problems of assessing the accuracy of maps are recognized, and a method is developed for quantifying the correctness of an interpretation, in which the more important features are given an appropriate weight. A study was made of imagery from a variety of landscapes in Britain and overseas, from which maps of drainage networks were drawn. The accuracy of the mapping was assessed in absolute terms, and also in r

Abstract (sommario):

Shallow lakes are an important ecological and socio-economic resource. However, the impact of human pressures, both at the lake and catchment scale, has precipitated a decline in the ecological status of many shallow lakes, both in the UK, and throughout Europe. There is now, as direct consequence, unprecedented interest in the assessment and monitoring of ecological status and trajectory in shallow lakes, not least in response to the European Union Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC). In this context, the spatially-resolving and panoramic data provided by remote sensing platforms may be of

The spectral regions observed include the strong 15 μtm carbon dioxide band and the 45 μm fundamental rotational water band.

Abstract (sommario):

Remote sensing has the potential to monitor spatial variation in water quality over large areas. While ocean colour work has developed analytical bio-optical water quality retrieval algorithms for medium spatial resolution platforms, remote sensing of lake water is often limited to high spatial resolution satellites such as Landsat, which have limited spectral resolution. This thesis presents the results of an investigation into satellite monitoring of lake water quality. The aim of this investigation was to ascertain the feasibility of estimating water quality and its spatial distribution

Water vapour is the principle source of opacity at infrared wavelengths in the Earth’s atmosphere. In support of site testing for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT), we have used La Silla and Paranal as calibration sites to verify satellite measurements of precipitable water vapour (PWV). We reconstructed the PWV history over both sites by analysing thousands of archived high-resolution echelle calibration spectra and compared that to satellite estimates for the same period. Three PWV measurement campaigns were conducted over both sites using several independent measurement techniq

The quantitative mapping of this anthropogenic radioactivity in estuarine intertidal zones is crucial for absolute interpretations of radionuclide transport.

Abstract (sommario):

L'estimació dels recursos hídrics de les superfícies continentals a escala regional i global és fonamental per a una bona gestió dels recursos hídrics. Aquesta estimació cobreix una àmplia gamma de temes i camps, incloent-hi la caracterització dels sòls i dels recursos hídrics a l’escala de la conca, la modelització hidrològica i la predicció i la cartografia d'inundacions. En aquest context, la caracterització dels estats de la superfície continental, per a obtenir millors paràmetres d’entrada als models hidrològics, és essencial per millorar la precisió en la simulació de cabals, sequeres i
