Remote Sensing and Field Evaluation of Wetlands in the Sandhills of Nebraska,
Abstract
This study documented the accuracy of Landsat wetland mapping in the Sandhills of Nebraska. Methodology for delineation of wetland communities and the determination of subirrigated meadows as wetlands has been established. Comparisons of the various remote sensor's depictions of Rice Lake proved inconclusive due to the incompatible classifications and resolutions. Significant vegetation changes have been noted in the temporal evaluation of Rice Lake. Additional studies are essential to place in proper perspective the remote sensing and field results.
