1. Water Quality Monitoring
The goal of the proposed research is to
explore whether the combination of hyperspectral remote sensing,
ground based spectroradiometry, GIS, and water sampling and analysis
can simplify and accelerate the protocol for assessing water quality
with an acceptable degree of accuracy.

2.
Wetland Mapping and
Modeling
- Investigate the potential use of 1 m CIR (2002)
photos and hybrid data (hyperspectral and traditional multi-spectral) in
wetland delineation. .
- Monitor wetland dynamics using landscape structure metrics from 1983 NWI
data and a current 2002 map that will be created from the first and second
objectives.
