Unique among Earth observation programs, the Landsat program has provided continuous
earth observation data for the past 41 years. Landsat data are systematically collected and …

Research on change detection techniques has long been an active topic and many
techniques have been developed. In reality, change detection is a comprehensive …

The abandonment phenomenon is familiar in China. It threatens food security and seriously
affects the sustainable development of society, the economy, and the natural environment …

Cropland abandonment is a widespread land-use change, but it is difficult to monitor with
remote sensing because it is often spatially dispersed, easily confused with spectrally similar …

Tree planting has been suggested as a potentially effective solution for mitigating climate
change. China has implemented the world's largest afforestation and reforestation project …

Map** and monitoring land cover and land cover change remains a top priority for land

We proposed a new image compositing algorithm (MAX-RNB) based on the maximum ratio
of Near Infrared (NIR) to Blue band (RNB), and evaluated it together with nine other …

A multi-resolution analysis (MRA) based on the wavelet transform (WT) has been
implemented to study NDVI time series. These series, which are non-stationary and present …

This book discusses the fundamentals of land-use and land-cover characterization,
map**, and monitoring using remote sensing technology. After covering the basic …

This book provides the practical basis for the use of remote sensing to accomplish
landscape ecological projects, through the merging of theory and practice, with examples …
