This book was released on 2011 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contemporary global climate crisis demands mitigation technologies to curb atmospheric greenhouse gas emissions, principally carbon dioxide (CO2). Geologic carbon sequestration (GCS) is a method by which point source CO2 emissions are purified and deposited in subsurface geologic formations for long-term storage. Accompanying this technology is the inherent responsibility to monitor these large-scale subsurface reservoirs for CO2 leaks to ensure safety to local environments and inhabitants, as well as to alleviate global warming. Elevated CO2 levels in soil are known to cause anoxic conditions in plant roots, thereby interfering with plant respiration and inducing a stress response that could possibly be remotely sensed using aerial imagery. Airborne remote sensing technology has the potential to monitor large land areas at a relatively small cost compared to alternative methods. In 2010, an aerial campaign was conducted during the height of the growing season to obtain an image time series that could be used to identify and characterize CO2 stress in vegetation from a simulated CO2 leak. An unsupervised classification was performed to classify CO2 stressed vegetation as a result of the subsurface injection. Furthermore, a spectral index was derived to amplify the CO2 stress signal and chart vegetation health trajectories for pixels affected by the CO2 release. A theoretical framework was developed for analysis strategies that could be implemented to detect a CO2 leak using aerial hyperspectral imagery with minimal a priori knowledge. Although aerial detection of CO2 stressed vegetation was possible while no other physiological plant stressors were present, the spectral distinction between vegetation stress agents would have important implications for the appropriate timing that GCS monitoring using remote sensing data could commence. A greenhouse experiment was devised to compare the spectral responses of alfalfa plants to CO2 and water stress in order to reveal whether CO2 leak detection is possible when soil water availability is highly variable or during periods of drought. Spectral discernment of a CO2 leak appears to be possible when soil water is spatially variable and during moderate drought conditions with remote sensing instruments that are sensitive to reflectance in the short wave infrared, where water absorption features related to leaf water content occur.

This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the principles of spectroscopy are well known and methods for analysis have been widely developed, particularly for spectra collected in laboratory environments, the heterogeneity of landscapes and earth surface features in extensive environmental studies still presents new challenges and opportunities for analysis of hyperspectral (HS) imagery. Image spectroscopy is potentially the best approach for assessing diverse environmental issues, however very little research has been performed on a regional scale and on long-term monitoring, mainly because of the rather high costs related to HS data acquisition and the expert knowledge which is still required for HS data pre-processing and processing. The main purpose of this thesis/book is to use Image Spectroscopy as a tool to monitor the environmental conditions in a region affected by anthropogenic activities via estimating both geochemical and biochemical parameters on a regional scale. The research has been carried on the Sokolov lignite mine, NW Bohemia, a region affected by long-term extensive mining.
