Remotely Sensing the Complexity of Rivers and Estuaries
The coasts of oceans are rich and complex environments. Over half the world’s population live on the coast or along river systems. Water resources in these regions are used for
Satellite Data Not Enough To Predict Melting Ice Caps
New research from a team of European scientists has found there is not enough satellite data to determine the rate of polar ice cap melt very far into the future and
Thermal IR spectroscopy for Mercury
Understanding the formation and evolution of Mercury, the innermost terrestrial planet, is important for studying the early stages of our solar system. Until recently, the surface composition of Mercury was
Satellite image shows Thailand’s oil spill
BANGKOK – The oil spill that hit Thailand’s popular Koh Samet island appears to be moving to coastal areas of the eastern province of Rayong, threatening to worsen the impact
Maximum Value Composite Images (MVC’s): A solution for Cloudy Image to calculate NDVI
When the satellite views an area at any one time, a large part of the image may be cloud, which has a very low NDVI (approximately 0.002). This gives no
