USING MODIS NORMALIZED DIFFERENCE VEGETATION INDEX TO MONITOR SEASONAL AND INTER-ANNUAL DYNAMICS OF WETLAND VEGETATION IN THE GREAT ARTESIAN BASIN: A BASELINE FOR ASSESSMENT OF FUTURE CHANGES IN A UNIQUE ECOSYSTEM

Using MODIS Normalized Difference Vegetation Index to monitor seasonal and inter-annual dynamics of wetland vegetation in the Great Artesian Basin: a baseline for assessment of future changes in a unique ecosystem

The Great Artesian Basin mound springs (Australia) are unique wetland ecosystems of great significance.However, these unique ecosystems are endangered by anthropogenic water extraction.Relationships have been established between the vegetated wetland area and the discharge associated with individual springs, providing a lochby venture pouch potenti

Technical Note: Flow velocity and discharge measurement in rivers using terrestrial and unmanned-aerial-vehicle imagery

An automatic workflow to measure surface flow velocities in rivers is introduced, including a Python tool.The method is based on particle-tracking velocimetry (PTV) and comprises an automatic definition of the search area for particles to track.Tracking is performed in the original images.Only the final tracks are geo-referenced, intersecting the i
