摘要: ABSTRACT Dallas Water Utilities (DWU) uses Landsat multispectral remote sensing data for determining historical land use changes in watersheds and identifing critical areas where water quality protection efforts should be maximized. monitoring are used to document actual impacts reservoirs from predicted by analyses adversely affected. Additionally, DWU monitors ail National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Texas Commission waste discharge permit applications plant performance histories. This ensures that reviews point source discharges assists the their functions. cooperates with other area agencies promote regional wastewater treatment as an alternative numerous package plants which have a history of poor management. Point management result lower total nutrient loads reservoirs. Remote technology provides one most efficient meth...
