[REPORT SUMMARY] Biodiversity parameters per km2
In each of the seven GREENVEINS partner countries, three to four homogeneous agricultural landscapes (LTS) were selected for study. The study used altogether 25 landscape test sites of 16 km2 (LTS), with three or four LTSs being located in each of seven countries (France, Bel...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Remote sensing methodology
Spectral reflectance in waveband 400-950 nm was measured from nadir at height of 1m above the canopy with narrow angle (12 degrees) receiver during sunny days around midday. For spatial averaging receiver was scanned over the plot and at least 90 reflectance spectra per plot w...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Development of a graphical user interface (GUI) for the homogeneous reflectance model MCRM2
XMCRM2 is a graphical front-end for the two-layer crop reflectance model MCRM2 (Kuusk, 2001), which should run in all Unix environments. It provides a convenient way for creating input files for MCRM2 and for viewing the results. Model parameters are inserted in the main panel...

The impact of sub-pixel non-homogeneities of the maize canopy on the reflectance was studied by comparing four crop reflectance models. The influence of the vertical heterogeneity of the canopy was studied by comparing the model of homogeneous canopies MCRM (Kuusk, 1995) and t...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Improvement of the two-layer canopy reflectance model MCRM2 to simulate row structures of the maize canopy
A common source of sub-pixel canopy heterogeneity in the agricultural field is the seeding along rows. The rows are especially visible at the beginning of the growing season in maize fields. A new canopy reflectance model was developed, which accounts for row structures. Plant...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Development of tools to generate and visualize plant stands of given statistical patterns
The FRT model (Kuusk and Nilson) allows simulating the reflectance of patchy canopies, where the plants may be randomly or regularly positioned. Their position is generated by an electrostatic algorithm (Gusakov and Fradkin, 1990). Each plant is described by a stem and by a cr...

[PROJECT] HABES - Harmful algal bloom expert system (HABES)
ID: EVK2-CT-2000-00092
Start date: 2001-03-01, End date: 2004-02-29
HABES aims at developing an improved understanding of harmful algal bloom formation by bringing together a multi-disciplinary team of Europe's most prominent scientists in a network of inter-linked (pilot) projects and by giving them access to the best possible datasets. HABES...

[PROJECT] SPIN - Spatial indicators for european nature conservation (SPIN)
ID: EVG1-CT-2000-00019
Start date: 2001-04-01, End date: 2004-03-31
The proposed project is focused on the development and testing of a coherent spatial indicator system based on multisensor satellite data and GIS to accomplish monitoring and management tasks in the context of NATURA2000. Spatial indicators will be derived either directly from...
