Studies of snow surface characteristics by Landsat TM in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica / Jan-Gunnar Winther.
Title: | Studies of snow surface characteristics by Landsat TM in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica / Jan-Gunnar Winther. |
Author(s): | Winther, Jan-Gunnar. |
Date: | 1993. |
In: | Annals of Glaciology. (1993.), Vol. 17 (1993) |
Abstract: | Large-scale melting phenomena (meltwater drainage channels, meltwater accumulation basins) have been surveyed on land-ice mass and were also detected in TM image recorded on 12 February 1990. Image-processing techniques such as principal components analysis, band ratioing and histogram-equalizing are carried out to emphasize melting phenomena. Histogram-equalized single TM Band 5 image appears to discriminate well, leaving melting phenomena as bright areas in TM scene. |
