Availability and needs of urban forest vegetation in industrial areas: Analyzing Landsat 8 Imagery using the normalized difference vegetation index method

Characterization of Landsat - 7 to Landsat - 8 reflective wavelength and 1 normalized difference vegetation index continuity

Estimating Leaf Area and Above-ground Biomass of Forest Regeneration Areas Using a Corrected Normalized Difference Vegetation Index

The objective of this study was to investigate the regression relations between vegetation indices derived from remotely-sensed data of single and mixed forest regeneration plots. Loblolly pine (Pinos faeda L.J seedlings, sweelgum (Liquidambar sfyraciflua L.) seedlings and broomsedge (Andropogon virginiws L.) grass were arranged in a factorial combination addition series experiment and replicat...

Spatializing a Dataset to Examine Progress on the Digital Divide Tracey Hughes ([email protected]) Application of spatial analysis for community informatics is an emerging paradigm, and this GIS dataset is one of the first in the field. ArcGIS 9.1 is used here to analyze the effects of the Technology ...

Comparison of impervious surface area and normalized difference vegetation index as indicators of surface urban heat island effects in Landsat imagery

This paper compares the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and percent impervious surface as indicators of surface urban heat island effects in Landsat imagery by investigating the relationships between the land surface temperature (LST), percent impervious surface area (%ISA), and the NDVI. Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) and Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) data were used to estim...

Mapping and Attributing Normalized Difference Vegetation Index Trends for Nepal

Global change affects vegetation cover and processes through multiple pathways. Long 1 time series of surface land surface properties derived from satellite remote sensing give unique 2 abilities to observe these changes, particularly in areas with complex topography and limited research 3 infrastructure. Here, we focus on Nepal, a biodiversity hotspot where vegetation productivity is 4 limited...
