A procedure for the computation of sea surface advection velocities from satellite thermal band imagery, with applications to the South East Atlantic Ocean
The research was carried out with a view to developing a procedure for the computation of sea surface advection velocities from pairs of NOAA AVHRR infrared images. The procedure was designed for application to the oceanic regions around South Africa and cognisance had to be taken of restrictions …

Determining the Feasibility of Using Remote Sensing to Estimate Irrigation Water Use in South Dakota at the Field Scale
… existing ET remote sensing models rely on a thermal band arid/or red and near infrared bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. In this study, two models that use thermal data were incorporated into a larger model to produce seasonal irrigation maps over two areas of South Dakota. The remote …

Satellite imagery evaluation of soil moisture variability in north-east part of Ganges Basin, India
… in the west, was assessed using Landsat TM Band 6 imagery dating from 1999-2003. The Band 6 thermal channel of Landsat is sensitive to soil temperature variability resulting from differences in moisture content and as such is a proxy for soil moisture variability in this environment. In …

Remote Sensing & GIS for Land Cover/ Land Use Change Detection and Analysis in the Semi-Natural Ecosystems and Agriculture Landscapes of the Central Ethiopian Rift Valley
… Instead a simple method of utilizing the thermal band has been demonstrated. A new approach of long-term dynamics analysis method has also been suggested. A successful classification of images was achieved after such simple enhancement tests. It has been discovered that, there were more …

Utilisation of remote sensing for the study of debris-covered glaciers: development and testing of techniques on Miage Glacier, Italian Alps
… extracting debris-thickness patterns from ASTER thermal-band imagery was developed, based on a physical energy-balance model for a debris surface. The method was found to be more accurate than previous empirical approaches, when compared with field thickness measurements, and has the potential …
