EVALUATING DEPTH TO SHALLOW GROUNDWATER USING HEAT-CAPACITY MAPPING MISSION (HCMM) DATA Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Four dates of HCMM data were analyzed to evaluate the utility of HCMM thermal data for evaluating depth to shallow groundwater. During the summer, shallow water tables can create lower soil temperatures throughout the diurnal temperature cycle. Because of large spatial and temporal ground cover variations, HCMM daytime radiometric temperatures alone did not correlate with water table depth. -from Authors
