Detecting Change in a Louisiana Gulf Coast Marsh Using Remote Sensing
Abstract
This study is concerned with detecting change in a Louisiana Gulf Coast marsh, and citing possible causes for the change. The primary objectives are to determine the amount, location and nature of change over a nine year period, utilizing Landsat data. Salinity, precipitation, water level and the distance of change-to-water are examined to determine their contribution to the alteration of this ecosystem.
