Forest ecosystems are among the largest terrestrial carbon reservoirs on our planet earth thus playing a vital role in global carbon cycle. Presently, remote sensing techniques provide proper estimates of forest biomass and quantify carbon stocks. The present study has explored Landsat-8 sensor product and evaluated its application in biomass mapping and estimation. The specific objectives were...

the objective of this study is to develop a novel methodology integrating remote sensing, geographic information system technology and local spatial autocorrelation geo-computation for quick drought assessment. one group of drought indices, based on the condition of the vegetation, includes the normalized difference vegetation index (ndvi), anomaly of normalized difference vegetation index (ndv...

the geometric mean particle diameter (dg) and lime are two of the most important properties from the viewpoint of soil management. nowadays remote sensing technology which has emerged walking with science development throughout the world, has made soil study faster, more facile and more cost-efficient. an investigation of soil dg and lime was performed in pol-e-dokhtar area by use of four sets ...
