Modern changes of tidal troughs among the radial sand ridges in northern Jiangsu coastal zone

Using satellite images taken on different dates,GIS analysis of aerial photos,bathymetric maps and other field survey data,tidal troughs and major sand ridges in the northern Jiangsu coastal area were contrasted.The results show that there have been three types of movement or migration of tidal trough in this area:(1) Periodic and restricted,this type of trough usually developed along the beaches with immobile gully head as a result of the artificial dams and the swing range increased from gully head to the...     

APPLICATION OF REMOTE SENSING AND FUZZY MATH TO STUDY OF SUSPENDED SEDIMENTS DIFFUSION NEAR THE HUANGHE RIVER DELTA

Sediment grain size parameters and the percent of sand and clay near the Huanghe River Delta are used to estimate the Huanghe Riser load diffusion with fuzzy analysis. The results are confirmed by field investigation and the landform changes of the river estuary and sediment diffusive pattern indicated by Landsat MSS, TM images.     

Retrieval of chlorophyll a and suspended solid concentrations by hyperspectral remote sensing in Taihu Lake, China

Chlorophyll α（ch1-α） and suspended solid concentrations are two frequently used water quality parameters for monitoring a lake. Traditional measurement of ch1-α and suspended solids, requiring laborious laboratory work, which is often expensive and time consuming. Hyperspectral remote-sensing measurement provides a fast and easy tool for estimating water trophic status. In situ hyperspectral data on March 7-8, July 6-7, September 20 and December 7-8, 2004 and the corresponding water chemical data were used to regress the algorithm of water quality parameters. Results showed that the peak of water leaving radiance around 700 nm （R700） varied proportionally with ch1-α concentration, and moved to infrared when algal bloom occurred. The reflectance ratio of R702/R685 was well correlated with ch1-α when water surface in no algal bloom case and the correlation coefficient was better if absorption of phycocyanin was considered. The reflectance ratio R620/R531 was highly correlated to the concentration of suspended solids. The relationship between suspended solids and other band groups were also compared. Secchi disk depth could be calculated by non-linear correlation with suspended solids concentration.     

土库曼斯坦马雷绿洲土地利用程度的遥感与GIS分析

本文以土库曼斯坦马雷绿洲为研究区,建立土地利用程度指数模型,利用2期遥感图像进行土地利用分类,对不同土地利用类型赋予相应属性;用正六边形网格采样,计算每个网格单元的土地利用程度综合指数;利用Kriging方法,对整个研究区进行土地利用程度综合指数插值和预测,分析马雷绿洲土地利用程度。结果表明:(1)研究区可利用土地利用类型主要为草地、耕地和撂荒地,占研究区的50%左右,呈减少态势;(2)研究区土地利用程度由中心向外围呈带状分布,土地利用程度综合指数等值线0.5为研究区绿洲与荒漠分界;(3)研究区中等及以上土地利用程度面积以年均0.079%递减,主绿洲与荒漠的面积比也由2001年的45.14∶54.86分别降为2010年的42.06∶57.94,说明研究区生态环境有恶化的趋势;(4)低、较高、高土地利用程度自身转移率均大于80%,而较低、中等土地利用程度自身转移率在50%左右。本文得到了马雷绿洲土地利用程度空间分布及变化,对研究区社会经济的发展及生态环境的保护具有指导意义,其技术流程和方法对今后的相关研究有一定的借鉴意义。
