River Morphology of Meandering River: Analysis and Modelling through Remote Sensing and GIS Techniques - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The main purpose of this book is to present the detail remote sensing and GIS techniques and applications for analysis and modelling of river morphology of a meandering river. An innovative river bankline prediction model is introduced in this book. A brief description on remote sensing and GIS based LULC classification, landform classification, soil mapping, slope mapping, geological mapping and geomorphology mapping is presented. The comprehensive work of temporal spatial analysis of satellite imageries; river planform; erosion-deposition analysis; river bankline migration analysis; hydro-geomorphology; form, and process based geomorphic classification of river; meander classification and trend analysis of a meandering river; identification and classification of vulnerable areas along river; river morphology field assessment; prediction of morphological change; and effect of bank protection structures on river morphology have been presented based on remote sensing and GIS techniques. The book is useful for the instructors, research scholars and students of geography, earth science, civil engineer, hydrology for the detail study in the field of river morphology and geomorphology. <p>The main purpose of this book is to present the detail remote sensing and GIS techniques and applications for analysis and modelling of river morphology of a meandering river.
