    Using partial least squares (PLS) to estimate canopy nitrogen and biomass of paddy rice in Chinas Sanjiang Plain (2014)
    Geographisches Institut der Universität zu Köln - Kölner Geographische Arbeiten

    Description: Abstract
    Description: Nitrogen (N) is one of the most essential elements in agriculture and ecology due to its direct role in determining crop yield and grain quality, as well as its association with canopy photosynthetic capacity and carbon-nitrogen cycling in the earth ecosystem. Remote sensing provides a useful way to capture canopy nitrogen and biomass with high spatial and temporal resolution. However, seasonal dynamics of plant morphophysiological variation hinder the simultaneous estimation of canopy N concentration (%N) and biomass using a traditional method such as vegetation indices because of the distinct dynamics of canopy biochemical and physical traits. In contrast, multivariate analysis method offers the capability of calibrating a model with multiple dependent variables of interest. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to, simultaneously, estimate canopy %N and biomass of rice using the partial least squares regression (PLSR) model. A field experiment was conducted for paddy rice fertilized with five N rates across five growth stages in 2008, located in the Sanjiang Plain, China. Results showed that the PLS regression model simultaneously explained 84% and 91% of the variation in %N and biomass, respectively, across the five growth stages. Our results also suggest that biomass is the dominant factor that affects the link between canopy dynamical traits and canopy reflectance measures. This study demonstrates that, by incorporating with PLSR for retrieving biophysical and biochemical properties from the full-spectrum analysis, to what extent canopy %N and biomass can be simultaneously estimated from canopy reflectance measurement.

    LIDAR-based remote sensing for archaeological applications (2011)
    Geographisches Institut der Universität zu Köln - Kölner Geographische Arbeiten
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-01-12
    Description: Abstract
    Description: The Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) technology, also referred to as LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging), represents the most relevant advancement of Earth Observation (EO) techniques applied to archaeological research in the last decade. It allows us to overcome some limits of satellite optical remote sensing in detecting archaeological remains covered by dense vegetation as well as microrelief of cultural interest in bare-ground sites. Currently, a LIDAR survey can be carried out by using two different types of ALS sensor systems: (i) conventional scanners or discrete echo scanners, and (ii) Full-Waveform (FW) scanners. The first one generally delivers only the first and last echo, thus losing many other reflections. The second one is able to detect the entire echo waveform for each emitted laser beam, thus offering improved capabilities especially in areas with complex morphology and/or dense vegetation cover. This paper shows the results obtained by processing point clouds taken from FW scanners for two emblematic study cases in Southern Italy. The first one is the abandoned medieval village of Monte Serico, located on a bare-ground hilly plateau, the second one is the Bosco dellIncoronata. By using an approach based on the use and processing of different shaded Digital Terrain Models (DTMs), the study allowed us to improve the reconstruction of the urban fabric and the paleoenvironmental setting, respectively.

    Publication Date: 2021-08-13
    Description: Abstract
    Description: The qualitative and quantitative phase analyses were performed in the KTB field laboratory by x-ray powder diffraction using SIEMENS D 500 diffractometer. During early stages of the KTB project a new method for quantitative phase analysis was developed (see references below). The method is based on the comparison of the diffraction spectrum of the unknown sample with those of pure minerals. The powder diffraction data of the minerals are stored in a database built up of 250 natural minerals separated from various types of igneous and metamorphic rocks. The complete analyses (radiation: Cu K alpha, lambda: 1,5405Å, stepwidth: 0,01°, counting time 2 sec/step, angle 2-80°) was carried out automatically including computations. The results of this quantitative phase analysis were used e.g. to check thin section petrography (and vice versa) and to construct a \"mineralogical rock composition log\".

    Description: From 29th - 30th of October, 2009, the 'Data Management Workshop' was held at the University of Cologne, Germany. This workshop was actively supported by two research projects. The CRC/TR32 'Patterns in Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere-Systems: Monitoring, Modelling, and Data Assimilation' as well as the CRC 806 'Our way to Europe: Culture-Environment Interaction and Human Mobility in the Later Quaternary', both Collaborative Research Centres of the German Research Foundation (DFG). In addition the workshop was co-organized by the Working Group 5 'Methods for Change Detection and Process Modelling' within the Commission VII 'Thematic Processing, Modelling and Analysis or Remotely Sensed Data' of the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS). Since many different scientific communities are facing similar problems in data handling, the aim of the workshop was to bring together a variety of scientific disciplines, which are sometimes recognised as being quite incompatible with one other (e.g. computer sciences, social sciences, geography, physics, pre-history, geoinformatics, archaeology, geosciences, meteorology, and biology). Moreover, the goal was to take into account the perspective of the funding bodies, in our case the DFG. The workshop was based on 11 invited talks and unusual long coffee breaks, parallel to poster sessions to encourage and support discussion. The diverse program attracted nearly 30 poster presentations and approximately 80 participants. The papers and abstracts of the workshop are summarized in the workshop proceedings.

    The BADC-CSV Format Meeting user and metadata requirements (2010)
    Geographisches Institut der Universität zu Köln - Kölner Geographische Arbeiten
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-01-12
    Description: Abstract
    Description: The 2007 British Atmospheric Data Centre (BADC) Users Survey examined the skill base of the BADCs user community. Results indicated a large proportion of users who were familiar with data held in ASCII formats such as comma-separated variables (csv) and there was a high degree of familiarity with spreadsheet programmes (e.g. Excel) for data analysis purposes. These result, combined with the experiences of the BADC staff dealing with user enquiries and assisting data suppliers in preparing data for submission, and the metadata requirements of the BADC, highlighted the need for a new ASCII format to be generated. The BADC-CSV format adheres to metadata conventions covered by the NASAAmes and NetCDF formats, the CF, and Dublin Core metadata conventions, the ISO19115 standard and the metadata requirements of the BADC and its sister data centres within the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). The format meets end user and data supplier requirements by being a native format for spreadsheet software as well as other commonly used data production and analysis tools (e.g. IDL, MatLab). This paper presents the requirements for the format resulting from the 2007 user survey and data centre requirements, describes the structure of the format and demonstrates the format through short examples. Finally, ongoing work to further develop the format is discussed.

    Description: Abstract
    Description: The multidisciplinary research unit 'Biodiversity and Sustainable Management of a Megadiverse Mountain Ecosystem in South Ecuador' established a central data management system to provide the members with all gathered scientific data. Additionally, to the database functionality of the system the web based layout is capable to present general information on the research unit to the public and support accounting and administration of the project. All parts of the system are implemented using open-source or free software. A major task is the allocation of a sophisticated and detailed metadata scheme. The standardized ecological metadata language (EML) is used as the basis for metadata information stored in a relational database. The describing datatypes are highly modular and can be expanded if necessary. Data input and searching is implemented through a dynamic webinterface with easy to use forms. This is important to increase the acceptance of the system by users. Searching the database is possible by strings for keywords, authors, etc. or by geographic locations. Except for gridded data, all single values of the datasets are stored in relational tables and thus, it is possible to extract only parts of a whole dataset during data download. While the system is already operational, modifications and new features are continuously implemented.

    Description: Abstract
    Description: WDC-RSAT is hosted and operated by the German Remote Sensing Data Center, DFD of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) under the nongovernmental auspices of the International Council for Science (ICSU) and is the most recent data center in the WMO-WDC family, in cooperation with the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). WDC-RSAT cooperates with partners in establishing and making use of modern information technologies (e.g. Grid) in order to promote networking. It is already being implemented as a data publication agent for data related to remote sensing of the atmosphere and is thus authorized to assign so-called Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) to data sets. The German ICSU WDCs (WDC-Climate, WDC-Mare, WDC-Terra, and WDC-RSAT) have formed in 2004 the 'WDC-Cluster on Earth System Research' in order to promote interdisciplinary research related to Earth sciences. Following the recommendations of the Committee of Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS), WDC-RSAT is currently establishing in cooperation with NASA a portal for satellite-based atmospheric composition data (ACC) which ultimately will be integrated in the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS).
