摘要: Abstract Vegetation cover, surface moisture availability (wetness) and radiant temperature constitute microclimatic variables derivable from multi-spectral satellite imagery. In addition, fraction impervious cover urban-induced runoff (RO) are obtainable such imagery when it is combined with a conventional image classification. Using AVHRR Landsat TM data, we illustrate how these parameters respond to urbanization case study of Chester County, PA — region that has undergone rapid urban development over the past decade. Specific factors affecting change in discussed. Based on statistical analysis County future values can be predicted, given characteristics initial land an estimate vegetation coverage.
