Today, remote sensing technology is used in all scientific and informing fields around the world, and it has achieved to very satisfying results. In the present study, by using remote sensing technology and application of satellite photographs the coefficient of curve number was estimated with high accuracy and pick discharge of the flood was calculated with a good accuracy. In this study, i...

a knowledge of soil surface conditions, especially desert crust, salt crust and desert varnish is useful for improving classification of remotely sensed data. desert crust can generate high levels of reflectance, similar to those areas with high salt concentration and non-saline soil. therefore, soil surface crusts might bias thematic remote sensing of soils. in this study, we evaluated the eff...

ecological studies based on field data have shown that vegetation phenology follows a relatively well-defined temporal pattern. this pattern, that is reflecting the cumulative temperature from the date of the beginning of the growth, can be represented by the use of a suitable model. due to the spatial, temporal, and ecological complexity of these processes a simple method to monitor phenologic...

Remote sensing is the observation and measurement of objects from a distance, i.e. instruments or recorders are not in direct contact with objects under investigation. Remote sensing depends upon measuring some kind of energy that is emitted, transmitted, or reflected from an object in order to determine certain physical properties of the object. One of the most common types of remote sensing i...

to determine the suitable indices for vegetation cover and production assessment based on the remote sensing data, simultaneous digital data with field data belonging to the spring rangeland of the semirom-isfahan province were analyzed. during two years of monitoring the annual, grass, forb, and shrub vegetation cover and the total production data from 86 were collected. the global positioning...
