With coastal erosion and the increased interest in beach monitoring, there is a greater need
for evaluation of the shoreline detection methods. Some studies have been conducted to …

Multispectral and hyperspectral images captured by remote sensing satellites or airborne
sensors contain abundant information that can be used to study and analyze objects of …

An accurate description of the abundance and size distribution of lakes is critical to
quantifying limnetic contributions to the global carbon cycle. However, estimates of global …

The assessment of the role of lakes and impoundments at regional and global scales, eg, in
biogeochemical cycles, requires good estimates of the areal extent and shape of water …

Alpine lakes on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) are key indicators of climate change and climate
variability. The increasing availability of remote sensing techniques with appropriate …

Traditional manual methods of extracting water bodies from remote sensing images cannot
satisfy the requirements for mass processing of remote sensing data, and new automated …

Relationships between fire history, vegetation structure and composition, and invasion by
introduced plant species have received limited attention in Australian woodlands. A study in …

The process of mapping shoreline structures (ie, riprap, groins, breakwaters or bulkheads) is
heavily reliant on in-situ field surveys and manual delineation using orthoimagery or aerial …

Image mosaicking can be defined as the registration of two or more images that are then
combined into a single image. Once the images have been registered to a common …

Natural and man-made effects may produce dynamic changes in coastal areas. Analysis of
changes in the shorelines of water bodies like seas, lakes, and wide rivers from remote …
