Locating Forest Management Units Using Remote Sensing and Geostatistical Tools in North-Central Washington, USA
2020
Sensors
Our study area consists of private, state, and federal land holdings that cover four counties in North-Central Washington, USA (Kittitas, Okanogan, Chelan and Douglas). ...
In this study, we share an approach to locate and map forest management units with high accuracy and with relatively rapid turnaround. ...
North-Central Washington is an area that receives frequent precipitation, and even during the summer a large part of the study area is snow covered. ...

Approaches for delineating landslide hazard areas using receiver operating characteristic in an advanced calibrating precision soil erosion model
2015
NHESSD
A landslide-location map was established by interpreting satellite image. Field observation data was used to validate the intensity of soil erosion. ...
The proposed model can effectively predict the landslide events in soil-erosion area. ...
In Fig. 4 the distribution of the "cover and management practice" i.e. factor C was generated by using Eq. (8) and ArcGIS Special Analyst tool. ...

Groundwater management and development by integrated remote sensing and geographic information systems: prospects and constraints
2006
Water resources management
With the advent of powerful personal computers and the advances in space technology, efficient techniques for land and water management have evolved of which RS (remote sensing) and GIS (geographic information ...
These techniques have fundamentally changed our thoughts and ways to manage natural resources in general and water resources in particular. ...
Acknowledgements The present work was financially supported by the Alexander von Humboldt (AvH) Foundation, Bonn, Germany in terms of research fellowship to the first author. ...

Spatially Heterogeneous Estimates of Fire Frequency in Ponderosa Pine Forests of Washington, USA
2010
Fire Ecology
We used a dataset of fire-scarred trees collected from four sites in eastern Washington, USA, ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa C. Lawson) forests. ...
Such information can reveal ecological relationships between fire and the landscape, and provide managers with an improved spatial perspective on fire frequency that can inform risk evaluations, fuels ...

A review of Canadian remote sensing applications in hydrology, 1995-1999
2000
Hydrological Processes
Canadian hydrologist and glaciologists have historically viewed remote sensing as an important tool in monitoring glacier fluctuations (Ostrem, 1975) with important implications for water management. ...
This paper reviews recent (1995—99) remote sensing contributions in hydrology by Canadians, specifically focusing on the usefulness and applicability of current remote sensing technology for water management ...

Tree spatial patterns in fire-frequent forests of western North America, including mechanisms of pattern formation and implications for designing fuel reduction and restoration treatments
2012
Forest Ecology and Management
In this review we synthesize the available spatial reference information for fire-frequent pine and mixed-conifer forests in western North America; interpret this information in the context of restoration ...
Based on these findings, we encourage managers to consciously adopt a view of forest structure that accommodates spatial heterogeneity within forest stands, and to use this conceptualization of forest ...
