Intra-urban analysis of commercial locations: A GIS-based approach
(2013)
The urban landscape is an interspersed mixing of residences, shops, theatres, parks, natural areas, and a multitude of other uses. From the early days of the central markets, to the planned downtown, to the heavily planned ...
Temporal observations of bright soil exposures at Gusev crater, Mars
(Journal of Geophysical Research, 2011-01-27)
The Mars Exploration Rover Spirit has discovered bright soil deposits in its wheel tracks that previously have been confirmed to contain ferric sulfates and/or opaline silica. Repeated Pancam multispectral observations ...
When Jewish settlers farmed in Manitoba
(Royal Canadian Geographical Society, 1977)
Traces the history of Bender Hamlet, a planned agricultural village located in the Interlake (the area between lakes Winnipeg and Manitoba), about 80 km from Winnipeg. The settlement was organized by a land speculator, ...
Analysis of Historical Evidence of Climate Change in Western and Northern Canada
(National Museum of Natural Sciences Project on Climatic Change in Canada During the Past 20,000 Years, 1981)
Analysis of historical climatic evidence, now in progress at the Universities of Manitoba and Winnipeg, are based entirely upon Hudson's Bay Company records. The objective is to thoroughly explore the utility of this ...
Summer storms trigger soil N₂O efflux episodes in forested catchments
(American Geophysical Union, 2016-01-14)
Climate change and climate-driven feedbacks on catchment hydrology and biogeochemistry have the potential to alter the aquatic versus atmospheric fate of nitrogen (N) in forests. This study investigated the hypothesis that ...
Spectral reflectance properties of zeolites and remote sensing implications
(Journal of Geophysical Research, 2002-09-25)
The 0.3- to 26-μm reflectance spectra of a suite of 28 zeolites were measured and analyzed to derive spectral-compositional-structural relationships. Below ~7 μm, the spectra are largely dominated by absorption features ...
Access to Environmental Justice: A Manitoba Toolkit for Improving Public Participation; Final Project Report, February 2021
(Manitoba Eco-network, The University of Winnipeg, and Public Interest Law Centre, 2021-02)
This final report details the implementation of the Manitoba Law Foundation funded project: Access to Environmental Justice: A Manitoba Toolkit for Improving Public Participation. The project materialized as a 6-part public ...
Submicroscopic metallic iron in lunar soils estimated from the in situ spectra of the Chang’E-3 mission
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2017-04-22)
Submicroscopic metallic iron (SMFe) created by space weathering has strong effects on the optical properties of the lunar surface. Spectra measured in situ by the visible-near-infrared spectrometer (VNIS) on board the ...
Light-toned salty soils and coexisting Si-rich species discovered by the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit in Columbia Hills
(Journal of Geophysical Research, 2008-12-19)
Light-toned soils were exposed, through serendipitous excavations by Spirit Rover wheels, at eight locations in the Columbia Hills. Their occurrences were grouped into four types on the basis of geomorphic settings. At ...
A Deep Learning Framework: Land-Use/Land-Cover Mapping and Analysis using Multispectral Satellite Imagery
(Springer, 2019-07-17)
In this article, we present an approach to land-use and land-cover (LULC) mapping from multispectral satellite images using deep learning methods. The terms satellite image classification and map production, although used ...
