Red mud soil contamination near an urban settlement analyzed by airborne hyperspectral remote sensing
Simone Pascucci,Claudia Belviso,Rosa Maria Cavalli,Giovanni Laneve,Ana Misurovic,C. Perrino,Stefano Pignatti +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that hyperspectral airborne remote sensing data can provide an effective, rapid and repeatable tool for mapping and monitoring the spread of red dust providing the location of the polluted areas to be checked.

Effect of contamination and adjacency factors on snow using spectroradiometer and hyperspectral images
TL;DR: In this paper, the retrieval of snow parameters such as grain size, contamination, and spectral albedo using high-resolution imaging data at different wavelengths are discussed using hyperspectral images and field measurements.
Geophysical and remote sensing methodologies applied to the analysis of regolith and geology in Burkina Faso, West Africa
TL;DR: In this article, airborne geophysical data integrated with field structural and lithological observation was successfully employed in the creation of the litho-structural framework in a poorly exposed Paleoproterozoic granite-greenstone terrain of the West African Craton.

Evaluation of HJ-1A/B CCD Surface Reflectance Products Using the VNIR and MODIS-Based Atmospheric Correction Approaches
TL;DR: Two atmospheric correction algorithms were applied to HJ-1A/B charge-coupled device (CCD) instrument data, and evaluation results indicated that both methods were suitable for operational flow, and that the MODIS-based method had better accuracy than the VNIR method, except for the near-infrared band.

A description of the correlated k distribution method for modeling nongray gaseous absorption, thermal emission, and multiple scattering in vertically inhomogeneous atmospheres
Andrew A. Lacis,Valdar Oinas +1 more
TL;DR: A radiative transfer method for treating nongray gaseous absorption and thermal emission in vertically inhomogeneous multiple scattering atmospheres is described in this paper, where probability density distributions of absorption coefficient strength are derived from line-by-line calculations to construct line-By-line and band model based k distributions.
