The long-term development of a watershed: spatial patterns, streamflow, and sustainability
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
This study examines the relationship between the developing landscape and the water flowing through it. The study area was an 86 sq. mi. watershed located in the coastal plains in Harris County, Texas. Daily streamflow ...
Constructing a GIS-based 3D urban model using LiDAR and aerial photographs
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Due to the increasing availability of high-resolution remotely sensed
imagery and detailed terrain surface elevation models, urban planners and
municipal managers can now model and visualize the urban space in ...
Analyzing the connectivity potential of landscape geomorphic systems: a radar remote sensing and GIS approach, Estufa Canyon, Texas, USA
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
Connectivity is considered one of the fundamental aspects that influences the rate
of mass movement in the landscape. The connectivity aspect has been acknowledged
from various conceptual geomorphic frameworks. None of ...
