The proper assessment of evapotranspiration and soil moisture content arefundamental in food security research, land management, pollution detection, nutrient flows,(wild-) fire detection, (desert) locust, carbon balance as well as hydrological modelling; etc.This paper takes an extensive, though not exhaustive sample of international scientificliterature to discuss different approaches to esti...

Remote Sensing has started to institute a “Best Paper” award to recognize the most outstanding papers in the area of remote sensing techniques, design and applications published in Remote Sensing. We are pleased to announce the first “Remote Sensing Best Paper Award” for the year 2014. Nominations were selected by the Editor-in-Chief and selected editorial board members from among all the paper...

Based on the principle of remote sensing image classification, the paper roundly discusses most popular conservative methods of supervised classification and unsupervised classification of remote sensing image, and simply appraises their advantages, disadvantages, and suitable occasions. The newest methods of computerized remote sensing image classification are discussed with the attempt to bri...

Urban heat islands are one of the most critical urban environment heat problems. Landsat ETM+ satellite data were used to investigate the land surface temperature and underlying surface indices such as NDVI and NDBI. A comparative study of the urban heat environment at different scales, times and locations was done to verify the heat island characteristics. Since remote sensing technology has l...

A multivalued (fuzzy) recognition system was formulated by Mandel d. al. which is capable of handling various imprecise inputs and provides multiple class choices to any input. In the present article, an application of the recognition system for detecting road­ like structures from lndian Remote Sensing satellite (IRS) imagery has been described. The concept of multiple choices of the recogniti...

This abstract touches briefly on the main components of our research program, summarizing the results of these efforts, and provides references for more detailed information. The goal of this research program is the development of a critical design for a Raman lidar system optimized to match Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program needs for profiling atmospheric water vapor at Cloud and...

Electromagnetic energy incident on the surface features are partially reflected, absorbed or transmitted through it. The fractions that are reflected absorbed or transmitted vary with material type and the condition of the feature. It also varies with the wavelength of the incident energy. Majority of the remote sensing systems operate in the region in which the surface features mostly reflect ...
