This paper presents an application of satellite remote sensing techniques to detect and to<strong><em> </em></strong>analyze the spatial changes as well as quantify the shoreline change in Rokan estuary, Riau Province, Indonesia. Coastal zone of Rokan estuary, a place through which Rokan River flows into Malacca Strait is dynamically changed because of the hydrodynamic nature and high sediment transport in downstream of Rokan River. By integrating modern techniques of remote sensing and GIS (Geographic Information System), the rates of shoreline change would be easily and quickly determined for a regional area. Landsat satellite images were used with a combination of histogram thresholding and band ratio method for shoreline change detection for last 14 years from 2000 to 2014. The shoreline data then were adjusted for serving as an input for GIS tool to estimate the erosion and deposition rates. The statistical method called as LRR (Linear Regression Rate) in DSAS (Digital Shoreline Analysis System) was used in this study. The results of this study present shoreline changes map of Rokan estuary for last 14 years. Quantitatively, the shoreline of Rokan estuary is dynamically changed over a time because accretion rate is very high. The accretion rates in Halang, Barkey, and Serusai Island within 14 years are 67 m/yr, 53 m/yr, and 114 m/yr respectively.This occurs because

Mapping of LULC and change detection using remote sensing and GIS techniques is a cost effective method of obtaining a clear understanding of the land cover alteration processes due to land use change and their consequences. This research focused on assessing landscape transformation in Shasha Forest Reserve, over an 18 year period. LANDSAT Satellite imageries (of 30 m resolution) covering the area at two epochs were characterized into five classes (Water Body, Forest Reserve, Built up Area, Vegetation, and Farmland) and classification performs with maximum likelihood algorithm, which resulted in the classes of each land use. <br><br> The result of the comparison of the two classified images showed that vegetation (degraded forest) has increased by 30.96 %, farmland cover increased by 22.82 % and built up area by 3.09 %. Forest reserve however, has decreased significantly by 46.12 % during the period. <br><br> This research highlights the increasing rate of modification of forest ecosystem by anthropogebic activities and the need to apprehend the situation to ensure sustainable forest management.

The following article aims to present and discuss the monitoring, through Remote Sensing, of the dirt displacement caused by the collapse of the Córrego do Feijão’s dam I of mining waste, which occurred on January 25, 2019, in the rural area of Brumadinho, a city located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. This event is considered one of the greatest technoindustrial disasters in Brazilian history, placing in danger one of the largest hydrographic basin in Brazil: the São Francisco river basin. The search area comprises from where the sludge mud got in contact with the Paraopeba’s right bank to its mouth into the Três Marias Dam, adding up to approximately 315 km. For this monitoring the spectral band ratio method was utilized,  using images from the sensors MSI/Sentinel-2 and OLI/Landsat-8 captured at different dates, employing standardization of means and variances to harmonize the range of the surface reflectance values in each image.

Rice blast disease occurs in rice production areas all over the world and is the most important disease in Japan. Remote sensing techniques may provide a mean for detecting disease intensity for large area without being subjected to raters. This study evaluated the use of airborne hyperspectral imagery to measure the severity of panicle blast in field crops. Hyperspectral remote sensing imagery was acquired at the dough stage of rice grain development in northern Japan. The most consistent relationship, with high R2 and low P, was the simple band ratio R498 to 515/R700 to 717 (i.e., the reflectance at 498 to 515-nm divided by the reflectance at 700- to 717-nm). The band ratio of R498 to 515/R700 to 717 increased significantly (P < 0.001) with increasing visual estimates of disease incidence, defined as the percentage of diseased spikelets (R2 = 0.83). Assessment of disease distribution and severity could provide useful information for making decisions regarding the necessity of fungicide application and estimate potential yield loss due to the disease.

A importância das zonas costeiras implica na necessidade de contínuos estudos relacionados ao monitoramento de seus processos. Neste contexto, a linha de costa representa uma das feições mais dinâmicas, e sua variabilidade é um indicador da erosão ou deposição costeira. A fim de avaliar as tendências de mudança da linha de costa do município de Icapuí, localizado no extremo leste do estado do Ceará, este trabalho envolveu a utilização de imagens orbitais do satélite Landsat, compondo uma série temporal de 30 anos com intervalos de cinco anos entre cada cena. Foram aplicados o Método de Mudança do Polígono e o Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) na caracterização da linha de costa, quantificando suas taxas de variação e balanço sedimentar em área. A área total foi setorizada em quatro porções, utilizando a morfologia costeira como critério de segmentação. Os resultados indicaram a existência de três hotspots de erosão e deposição, relacionados à desembocadura do riacho Arrombado, no setor leste; à desembocadura do estuário Barra Grande, que separa os setores centrais leste e oeste; e ao promontório de Ponta Grossa, que condiciona uma inflexão da linha de costa no setor oeste. Cada um destes setores apresenta dinâmica de deposição a barlamar e erosão a sotamar, com destaque para os processos acentuados de retrogradação entre as praias de Barreiras de Baixo e Barrinhas, no setor central oeste, e a forte dinâmica deposicional da praia de Ponta Grossa, no setor oeste. Identification of the erosive and depositional sectors of the Icapuí (CE) shoreline based on remote sensing products and geoprocessing techniques A B S T R A C TThe importance of coastal zones implies the need for continuous studies related to the monitoring of their processes. In this context, the shoreline represents one of the most dynamic features, and its variability is an indicator of erosion or coastal deposition. In order to evaluate the changing trends of the coast of the Icapuí city, located in the far east of the state of Ceará, this work involved the use of Landsat satellite orbital images, composing a 30-year time series with five-year intervals between each scene. The Polygon Change Method and the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) were applied to characterize the shoreline, quantifying its variation rates and sedimentary balance in area. The total area was divided into four portions, using coastal morphology as a segmentation criterion. The results indicated the existence of three erosion and deposition hotspots, related to the Arrombado stream inlet, in the eastern sector; the Barra Grande estuary inlet, which separates the central east and west sectors; and the Ponta Grossa promontory, which conditions a shoreline inflection in the western sector. Each of these sectors has a deposition dynamic to updrift and erosion to downdrift, with prominence to the accentuated processes of retrogradation between the Barreiras de Baixo and Barrinhas beaches, in the central west sector, and the strong depositional dynamics of Ponta Grossa beach, in the west sector.Keywords: coastal erosion; shoreline change; temporal analysis.
