A field survey and Landsat ETM+ image acquisition carried out simultaneously. Using these data, we attempted to establish relationships between tidal flat environmental factors and reflectance observed by ETM+, and to set up a new critical grain size useful for optical remote sensing. Although the grain size of 4 $\Phi$ has been conventionally used as a critical size by sedimentologists, the correlation with optical reflectance was very low. Instead, the grain size of 2 $\Phi$ showed a relatively high correlation coefficient, 0.699, with ETM+ band 4, except near tidal channels in upper tidal flat. We concluded that the grain size of 2 $\Phi$ would be better to use for a critical grain size in Gomso Bay. The grain size also correlated well with moisture content having a correlation coefficient of -0.811 when the 2 $\Phi$ criterion was used. The results of factor analysis showed moisture content was more important parameter than topographic relief, and they were different from German tidal flats in which topographic relief was the prior factor This can be explained by finer grain composition of the Gomso bay tidal flat. In short, moisture content and topography as well as grain size should be considered in tidal flat remote sensing.

There is an increasing need to use data from different sensors in order to maximize the chances of obtaining a cloud-free image and to meet timely requirements for information. However, the use of data from multiple sensor systems is depending on comprehensive relationships between sensors of different types. Indeed, a study of inter-sensor relationships is well advanced in the effective use of remotely sensed data from multiple sensors. This paper was concerned with relationships between sensors of different types for vegetation indices (VI). The study was conducted using IKONOS and Landsat-7 ETM+ images. IKONOS and Landsat-7 ETM+ image of the same or about the same dates were acquired. The Landsat-7 ETM+ images were resampled in order to make them coincide with the pixel sizes of IKONOS. Inter-relationships of vegetation indices between images were performed using at-satellite reflectance obtained by converting image digital number (DN). All images were applied to topographic normalization method in order to reduce topographic effect in digital imagery. Also, Inter-sensor model equations between two sensors were developed and applied to other study region. In the result, the relational equations can be used to compute or interpret VI of one sensor using the VI of another sensor.

The flow of freshwater into the sea, termed as submarine groundwater discharge, is a key factor for understanding the hydrological cycle in both the sea and land regions. The numerous positions from which freshwater gushes out or its quantity impedes the understanding of its properties. Therefore, this study detects groundwater discharge points arising due to the difference in freshwater and seawater by using the multispectral Landsat ETM+ signals. A case study in coastal regions around Mt. Chokaisan, Japan is performed. This study comprises three procedures: (1) computer simulation of the flow of submarine groundwater discharge in the study area, (2) performance of preliminary experiment on the band properties of the Landsat ETM+, (3) detection of the difference in water properties by using the Landsat multispectral bands. Our experimental results obtained by the Landsat ETM+ are in considerable agreement with the realities in the study area.

This paper presents the capability to use QuickBird imagery for effects of forest disturbance in Okgye burned area. Particular attention of this paper deals with the NBR-derived mapping burn severity on QuickBird imagery to locate reliable rehabilitation(namely, secondary succession) over postfire surface. Comparisons of the mapping forest disturbance derived from QuickBird NBR data and the mapping burn severity derived from Landsat ${\Delta}NBR$ data show substantial agreement (KHAT value =0.7886). The method calculated from the correlation between QuickBird wetness and Landsat ETM+ band7 may have application to forest harvest disturbance.

There are several methods for separating the baseflow from the hydrograph, and graphical methods (GM) have mostly been used. GMs are those that separate the baseflow from the direct flow simply by connecting rising point with inflection point or points related to some duration from a hydrograph. Environmental tracer method (ETM) is another tool researched and developed under several conditions to estimate the groundwater recharge. The goal of this study is to separate the baseflow component from a storm hydrograph by applying various GMs and ETM, and to compare their results. The baseflow component estimated by ETM was different from the results by GMs in terms of their shapes of fluctuation and flow rates. Another important feature is that the form of the baseflow to which ETM is applied is similar to that of a storm hydrograph. This similarity is presumed to be due to the selection of tracer that respond quickly to rainfall.

This paper deals with assessment of potential interference between grounding electrodes using ETM(Electrolytic Tank Modeling) method. When a test current flowed through grounding electrode, potential rise was measured and analyzed using an electrolytic tank in real time. In order to analyze the potential interference between grounding electrodes, ETM method was studies. Potential interference between isolated grounding electrodes was evaluated as functions of the separation distance between grounding electrodes and the configuration of grounding electrode to be induced. It was found that the separation distance between grounding electrodes in reducing the potential interference was a major factor.

하이퍼스펙트럴 데이터의 효과적인 분석을 위해 밴드 추출(Feature Extraction)이나 밴드선택(Feature Selection)에 대한 연구가 최근 많이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 상대적으로 많은 밴드를 가지는 하이퍼스펙트럴 영상을 식생지수(Vegetation Index)와 같은 특수한 목적에 적용하기 위해 같은 파장대의 밴드를 조합(Band Aggregation)하여 Landsat ETM+ 영상 밴드와 동일한 영상 생성을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 NASA에서 제공하는 밴드별 분광특성 자료를 이용하여 밴드 조합을 위한 가중치 계산식에 적용하였으며, 밴드 선택을 위한 유효 파장대를 추출해 보았다 데이터 간 편차를 줄이기 위해 실제 1분 간격으로 촬영된 동일지역의 Hyperion과 ETM+ 영상을 사용하여 알고리즘에 적용하였고, 그 결과를 영상 간 상관계수와 NDVI 영상을 이용하여 비교 분석하였다.

Motivation of this study is based on these two aspects: geologic uses of ASTER and application scheme of Spectral Mixture Analysis. This study aims at geologic mapping for mineral exploration using ASTER and LANDSAT 7 ETM+ at Mongolian plateau region by SMA. After basic pre-processing such as the normalization, geometric corrections and calibration of reflectance, related to endmembers selection and spectral signature deviation, both methods using spectral library and using PPI(Pixel Purity Index) are performed and compared on a given task. Based on these schemes, SMA is performed using LANDSAT 7 ETM+ and ASTER image. As the results, fraction map showing geologic rock types are enough to meet purposes such as geologic mapping and mineral potential mapping in the case of both uses of these different types of remotely sensed images. It concluded that this approach based on SMA with LANDSAT and ASTER is regarded as one of effective schemes for geologic remote sensing.

We retrieved the aerosol optical thickness $\tau$$_{a}$ over land from Landsat-7/ETM+ image data using the correlation between the visible reflectance and middle IR reflectance. This band correlation method for aerosol retrieval was originally proposed fur MODIS data analysis by Kaufman et al.(1977). The results of retrieved aerosol optical thickness $\tau$$_{a}$ from Landsat-7/ETM+ data were compared with the simultaneous sky observation data at our study site. We found a good agreement between the retrieved and observed values. We presented the distribution maps of the aerosol optical thickness over land, retrieved from Landsat-7/ETM+ image data. Then, the surface reflectance map was also presented. The aerosol optical thickness over sea was retrieved assuming no reflected contribution from sea in the near IR band. In addition, we discussed some limitations when we apply the band correlation method.
