Dear Colleagues:
The special issue of Remote Sensing of Environment dedicated to Landsat is
out. Congratulations to the Landsat ST for a job well done!
This volume includes several papers that are relevant to aquatic/marine
applications of Landsat data. These papers represent a very substantial
step in making Landsat more useful to a larger community.
The following titles are of interest to the marine science community,
including in particular coral reef researchers:
Remote Sensing of Environment (Elsevier)
Volume 78, Issues 1-2,
Pages 1-220 (October 2001)
--------------------------------------------------
Landsat 7's long-term acquisition plan an innovative approach to building a
global imagery archive, Pages 13-26
Terry Arvidson, John Gasch and Samuel N. Goward
Atmospheric correction and cross-calibration of LANDSAT-7/ETM+ imagery over
aquatic environments: A multiplatform approach using SeaWiFS/MODIS, Pages

Chuanmin Hu, Frank E. Muller-Karger, Serge Andrefouet and Kendall L.
Carder
Calibration of Landsat thermal data and application to water resource
studies, Pages 108-117
John R. Schott, Julia A. Barsi, Bryce L. Nordgren, Nina Gibson
Raqueño and Dilkushi de Alwis
Change detection in shallow coral reef environments using Landsat 7 ETM+
data, Pages 150-162
Serge Andréfouët, Frank E. Muller-Karger, Eric J. Hochberg, Chuanmin

-------------------------------------------
The paper by Terry Arvidson, John Gasch and Samuel N. Goward (Landsat 7's
long-term acquisition plan an innovative approach to building a global
imagery archive, Pages 13-26) documents the very significant effort that NASA
and the USGS have placed in covering global coral reefs. As a result of the
Landsat data acquisition plan, there is a very complete inventory of images
covering coral reef areas around the globe. Most areas have been acquired
more than once. Thanks to NASA and the USGS for this support.
