Study of Mangrove Forest Existing Condition using Remote Sensing Image in The Karawang Coast of 2018

ABSTRACTThe northern part of Karawang is a coastal area with mostly mud-sand substrates. This substrate tends to be unstable, so that naturally, this kind of sediment is supported by coastal vegetation that forms coastal ecosystems, such as mangroves; therefore, the importance of mangroves in Karawang coast is definite. Unfotunately the data regarding the condition of mangroves in Karawang Regency is quite insufficient. This information, especially about its existence, is needed as a database for further research and as basis to support government policies on coastal area management. The aim of this research is to provide information about the existence of mangrove in Karawang Regency. The method is by using Normalized Different Vegetation Index (NDVI) calculations on Landsat 8 2018 satellite imagery of Karawang to get the data that reveal the information. We have discovered that the existing of mangroves in Karawang Regency in 2018 is 305,14 Ha. Border coast that is vegetated is only 33.75 km of 77 km long coastline of Karawang. Only less than 5% of the total mangrove protected area in Karawang Regency is detected as mangrove from the total 9.055 Ha of the area.

O objetivo do presente trabalho é fazer uma comparação entre a temperatura de superfície e o Índice de Vegetação por Diferença Normalizada (NDVI) na microbacia do rio da Batateiras/Crato-CE em dois períodos do ano de 2017, um chuvoso (abril) e um seco (setembro) como também analisar o mapa de diferença de temperatura nesses dois referidos períodos. Foram utilizadas imagens de satélite LANDSAT 8 (banda 10) para mensuração de temperatura e a banda 4 e 5 para geração do NDVI. As análises demonstram que no mês de abril a temperatura da superfície variou aproximadamente entre 23.2ºC e 31.06ºC, enquanto no mês correspondente a setembro, os valores variaram de 25°C e 40.5°C, sendo que as maiores temperaturas foram encontradas em locais com baixa densidade de vegetação, de acordo com a carta de NDVI desses dois meses. A maior diferença de temperatura desses dois meses foi de 14.2°C indicando que ocorre um aumento da temperatura proporcionado pelo período que corresponde a um dos mais secos da região, diferentemente de abril que está no período de chuvas e tem uma maior umidade, presença de vegetação e corpos d’água que amenizam a temperatura.Palavras-chave: Sensoriamento Remoto; Vegetação; Microbacia. ABSTRACTThe objective of the present work is to compare the surface temperature and the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) in the Batateiras / Crato-CE river basin in two periods of 2017, one rainy (April) and one (September) and to analyze the temperature difference map in these two periods. LANDSAT 8 (band 10) satellite images were used for temperature measurement and band 4 and 5 for NDVI generation. The analyzes show that in April the surface temperature varied approximately between 23.2ºC and 31.06ºC, while in the month corresponding to September, the values ranged from 25ºC and 40.5ºC, and the highest temperatures were found in locations with low density of vegetation, according to the NDVI letter of these two months. The highest difference in temperature for these two months was 14.2 ° C, indicating that there is an increase in temperature provided by the period that corresponds to one of the driest in the region, unlike April that is in the rainy season and has a higher humidity, presence of vegetation and water bodies that soften the temperature.Key-words: Remote sensing; Vegetation; Microbasin.RESUMENEl objetivo del presente trabajo es hacer una comparación entre la temperatura de la superficie y el Índice de Vegetación de Diferencia Normalizada (NDVI) en la cuenca Batateiras / Crato-CE en dos períodos de 2017, uno lluvioso (abril) y uno (Septiembre), así como analizar el mapa de diferencia de temperatura en estos dos períodos.

Indonesia is an Archipelago Country because the Country of Indonesia consists of many islands stretching from Sabang in the west to the island of Merauke on the east. The Archipelago Country also comes from the old name of the Indonesian Country called Nusantara, because Nusantara is a country that consists of many islands. Indonesia is an Archipelago Country which means it has potential resources in the coastal areas, one of which is found on the northern coast of Java. The coastal area is an important area to be reviewed, one of which is the use of coastal resources by paying attention to the condition of the ecosystem that remains stable. Opportunities for coastal area utilization in the field of fisheries are in the form of fishing activities or fish farming, especially pond cultivation activities. Based on data from the Department of Marine and Fisheries of the Province of Central Java in 2010, pond cultivation is one of the potential resources on the coast. This potential is supported by the government to increase fish production in order to increase the consumption of fish in the community. Therefore, it is necessary to choose the most effective method of pond cultivation between traditional methods and intensive methods to optimize fish production. One indicator of effectiveness between the two methods can be seen from the phytoplankton distribution. Phytoplankton contains chlorophyll-a in the body and is a natural food from fish. Phytoplankton provides important ecological functions for the aquatic life cycle by serving as the basis of food webs in water. Phytoplankton also functions as the main food item in freshwater fish culture and seawater fish cultivation. Therefore, it is necessary to know the chlorophyll-a concentration in the ponds of traditional and intensive methods to determine the concentration chlorophyll-a of the two pond methods. One method used to determine the concentration of chlorophyll-a using remote sensing technology. Remote sensing technology can be used to determine the concentration of chlorophyll-a using the Wouthuyzen, Wibowo, Pentury, Much Jisin Arief and Lestari Laksmi algorithms. The results showed that the Pentury algorithm was relatively better to determine the concentration of chlorophyll-a in shallow waters (ponds). The lowest concentration of chlorophyll-a in traditional ponds is 0.47068 mg/m3, the highest concentration is 1.95017 mg/m3 and the average concentration is 1.12893 mg/m3, while in intensive ponds the lowest concentration is 0.36713 mg/m3, the concentration the highest is 3.17063 mg/m3 and the average concentration is 1.53556 mg/m3.

Spring Phenology

Abstract. Greenup dates of the mountainous Acadia National Park, were monitored using remote sensing data (including Landsat 8 surface reflectances (at a 30 m spatial resolution) and VIIRS reflectances adjusted to a nadir view (gridded at a 500 m spatial resolution)) during the 2013–2016 growing seasons. Ground-level leaf-out monitoring in the areas alongside the north-south-oriented hiking trails on three of the park's tallest mountains (466 m, 418 m, and 380 m) was used to evaluate satellite derived greenup dates in this study. While the 30 m resolution would be expected to provide a better scale for phenology detection in this mountainous region than the 500 m resolution, the daily temporal resolution of the 500 m data would be expected to offer vastly superior monitoring of the rapid variations experienced during vegetation greenup along elevational gradients. Therefore, the greenup dates derived from the Landsat 8 Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) data, augmented with Spatial and Temporal Adaptive Reflectance Fusion Model (STARFM) simulated EVI values, does provide more spatial details than VIIRS data alone and agree well with field monitored leaf out dates. Satellite derived greenup dates from the 30 m of Acadia National Park vary among different elevational zones, although the date of greenup is not always the most advanced at the lowest elevation. This indicates that the spring phenology is not only determined by microclimates associated with different elevations in this mountainous area, but is also possibly affected by the species mixture, localized temperatures, and other factors in Acadia.

The possibilities of using remote sensing of the Earth data to assess the formation of phytocenoses at reclaimed dumps and landfills are presented. The objects of study are landfills and dumps in the Perm Territory, which differed from each other in the types and timing of reclamation work. The state of the vegetation cover on the reclaimed and self-overgrowing objects was compared with the reference plots with naturally formed herbage of zonal meadow vegetation. The process of reclamation of the territory of closed landfills was assessed by the presence and homogeneity of the vegetation layer and by the values of the vegetation index NDVI. To identify the dynamics of changes in the vegetation cover, we used multi-temporal satellite images from the open resources of Google Earth and images in the visible and infrared ranges of the Landsat-5/TM and Landsat-8/OLI satellites. It is shown that the data of remote sensing of the Earth, in particular the analysis of vegetation indices, can be used to assess the dynamics of overgrowing of territories of reclaimed waste disposal facilities, as well as an additional and cost-effective method for monitoring the restoration of previously disturbed territories.

This paper proposes a model to extract feature information quickly and accurately identifying what cannot be achieved through traditional methods of remote sensing image classification. First, process the selected Landsat-8 remote sensing data, including radiometric calibration, geometric correction, optimal band combination, and image cropping. Add the processed remote sensing image to the normalized geographic auxiliary information, digital elevation model (DEM), and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), working together to build a neural network that consists of three levels based on the structure of back-propagation neural and extended delta bar delta (BPN-EDBD) algorithm, determining the parameters of the neural network to constitute a good classification model. Then determine classification and standards via field surveys and related geographic information; select training samples BPN-EDBD for algorithm learning and training and, if necessary, revise and improve its parameters using the BPN-EDBD classification algorithm to classify the remote sensing image after pretreatment and DEM data and NDVI as input parameters and output classification results, and run accuracy assessment. Finally, compare with traditional supervised classification algorithms, while adding different auxiliary geographic information to compare classification results to study the advantages and disadvantages of BPN-EDBD classification algorithm.

Industrialization production with high quality and effect on winter is an important measure for accelerating the shift from increasing agricultural production to improving quality in terms of grain protein content (GPC). Remote sensing technology achieved the GPC prediction. However, large deviations in interannual expansion and regional transfer still exist. The present experiment was carried out in wheat producing areas of Beijing (BJ), Renqiu (RQ), Quzhou, and Jinzhou in Hebei Province. First, the spectral consistency of Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (LS8) and RapidEye (RE) was compared with Sentinel-2 (S2) satellites at the same ground point in the same period. The GPC prediction model was constructed by coupling the vegetation index with the meteorological data obtained by the European Center for Medium-range Weather Forecasts using hierarchical linear model (HLM) method. The prediction and spatial expansion of regional GPC were validated. Results were as follows: (1) Spectral information calculated from S2 imagery were highly consistent with LS8 (R2 = 1.00) and RE (R2 = 0.99) imagery, which could be jointly used for GPC modeling. (2) The predicted GPC by using the HLM method (R2 = 0.524) demonstrated higher accuracy than the empirical linear model (R2 = 0.286) and showed higher improvements across inter-annual and regional scales. (3) The GPC prediction results of the verification samples in RQ, BJ, Xiaotangshan (XTS) in 2018, and XTS in 2019 were ideal with root mean square errors of 0.61%, 1.13%, 0.91%, and 0.38%, and relative root mean square error of 4.11%, 6.83%, 6.41%, and 2.58%, respectively. This study has great application potential for regional and inter-annual quality prediction.

Source Of Information

Air pollution is one of the major environmental problems, especially in industrial and highly populated areas. Remote sensing image is a rich source of information with many uses. This paper is focused on estimation of air pollutants using Landsat-5 TM and Landsat-8 OLI satellite images. Particulate Matter with particle size less than 10 microns (PM10) is estimated for the study area of Principado de Asturias (Spain). When a satellite records the radiance of the surface received at sensor, does not represent the true radiance of the surface. A noise caused by Aerosol and Particulate Matters attenuate that radiance. In many applications of remote sensing, that noise called path radiance is removed during pre-processing. Instead, path radiance was used to estimate the PM10 concentration in the air. A relationship between the path radiance and PM10 measurements from ground stations has been established using Random Forest (RF) algorithm and a PM10 map was generated for the study area. The results show that PM10 estimation through satellite image is an efficient technique and it is suitable for local and regional studies.

Watershed modelling is one of the most important assessment tools in watershed planning and management. Nonetheless, the classic calibration of watershed models, in which a few discharge gauges near the outlet of a catchment are used to compare measured and simulated streamflow, is often criticized by not assuring that relevant processes such as evapotranspiration, soil moisture, crop growth, and groundwater recharge are well represented in the catchment area. This study aimed to simulate streamflow in two Mediterranean catchments, Orba (778km2) in Italy and Segre (1286km2) in Spain, using the physically-based, fully distributed MOHID-Land model. Model calibration/validation of streamflow was first performed following a classical approach. Different products derived from remote sensing platforms were then used to evaluate the adequacy of model simulations of crop growth and soil moisture in the catchment area.The MOHID-Land model considers four compartments or mediums (atmosphere, porous media, soil surface and river network), computing water dynamics through the different mediums using mass and momentum conservation equations. The model was implemented in the two simulated catchments with a resolution of 1 km. Data inputs included the Digital Elevation Model over Europe (EU-DEM) with a resolution of 30 m; the soil hydraulic properties map from EU-SoilHydroGrids ver1.0 with a resolution of 250 m; the CORINE land cover map from 2012 with a resolution of 100 m; the hourly weather data (precipitation, wind velocity, relative air humidity, solar radiation and surface air temperature) from local weather stations; and the reservoir discharge data from governmental and/or regional agencies. Simulations were run from 2006-2014 for Orba and from 2008-2018 for Segre, and included a model warm-up, a calibration, and a validation period. Comparison between simulated and measured flows were performed in 2 and 10 hydrometric stations located in the Orba and Segre catchments, respectively. Four statistical parameters (R2, RMSE, PBIAS and NSE) were used to evaluate model performance, confirming the good fitting of model simulations to measured data.Model simulations of leaf area index (LAI) were then compared with LAI maps at 30 m resolution derived from ATCOR and Landsat 8 imagery data using the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and the Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI). Furthermore, model simulation of soil moisture were also compared at the surface depth (0-5 cm) with soil moisture maps at 1 km resolution created with the DISaggregation based on a Physical And Theoretical scale CHange (DISPATCH) algorithm for the downscaling of the 40 km SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) soil moisture data using land surface temperature (LST) and NDVI data. Results showed the fundamental differences between the MOHID-Land and remote sensing outputs, with major differences being analyzed by soil units and land use classes.
