Water is one of the vital components of the Earth environment which needs to be frequently monitored. Satellite multispectral remote sensing image has been used over decades for water body extraction. Methodology of water body extraction can be summarized to three groups: feature extraction

Abstract. On the basis of paleobotanical data, analysis of paleoflora composition, taphocoenose, having a continuous series of paleocarpological data, there have been observed the main stages of development of the water body flora in the Eocene and Oligocene. The explored paleoflora of the Western

Biodiversity of aquatic insect and physicochemical water quality parameters in receiving water bodies in Kasetsart University, Kamphaeng Saen Campus, Nakhon Pathom Province, central Thailand were assessed during October 2010 to September 2011. Seven sampling stations, each 100 m long, were

abstract: The assessment of completeness of mollusc species lists in selected permanent and temporary floodplain water bodies located within the lower Bug River valley, as well as estimation of the minimum number of samples required to obtain an acceptable efficiency of inventory in individual

During the Neogene-Quaternary, several water bodies occupied the tectonic depressions along the Jordan- Arava valley (Fig. 1). These depressions are associated with the tectonic movements along the Dead Sea- Red Sea transform fault (Freund et al. 1970, Garfunkel, 1981). The sediments

The primary focus of this research is to study the oscillations of semi-enclosed water body induced by hurricanes. The physical mechanisms of the wind-induced oscillation (storm surge) in a semi-enclosed water body are analyzed by the depth-averaged, non-linear shallow-water equations

A Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) neural network was used to extract water bodies from Landsat 4 satellite images in this project. We compared LVQ with the Tasseled Cap Transformation (TCT) method and a conventional rule based method. Results show that LVQ can achieve a classification error

Pollution by nutrients from agricultural activities caus-es many problems in the environment. Fertilization is con-sidered as one of the main sources of pollution of water bodies caused by agriculture. When high fertilizer rates are applied which are not in line with the codes of good agricultural

Bhopal, the capital of Madhya Pradesh is gifted with number of water resources of multiple uses. However most of the water bodies have shrunken because of siltation, illegal land filling, conversion, and encroachment. The combination of all these factors ultimately resulted in deterioration

Recently the system to assess the status of water bodies basing on physical-chemical, biological and hydromorphological parameters actively applied in the countries of the European Union. The response of ecosystems of different river types is recognized as the best indicator of “good ecological
