Observed Flooding Areas Using USGS / NASA Landsat 8 and Copernicus / ESA Sentinel SAR data

Magnitude of largest model break in Continuous Change Detection Algorithm harmonic regression model, indicative of clearcut logging in the Oregon coast range forests. Imagery from Landsat 4-5 TM, Landsat 7 ETM+, and Landsat 8-9 OLI from across the study period 2000-2021 over standard hill shade. Patches of blue show clear cut areas with lavender then yellow indicating higher magnitude. Green areas represent forests untouched during the study period.

Predicted cheatgrass green-up imagery from Landsat 8 OLI data. This composite image of the western portion of the Mullen Fire Study Area is from June 2022. Shades of green and yellow indicate an earlier green-up time, while orange, brown, and white areas show later predicted green-up times. This data was used to create NDVI difference maps which will help managers predict when and where to apply treatments to limit the spread of cheatgrass.
