Wetland MappingWetland Mapping

F t d tl d diffi lt t i i l Forested wetlands are difficult to map using aerial photography, even harder with moderate resolution multispectral satellite data (e.g., Landsat) Majority of wetlands in US and CBW are forested

Rapid changes in land cover further confound wetland mapping in developing areas, like the CBW.

Need to improve ability to map wetlands using moderate resolution data because doing so will allow the rapid update of wetland maps and the monitoring of dynamic wetland functioningg

Field data are costly and often difficult to Field data are costly and often difficult to collect, but are vital to the development of accurate maps.

Highly accurate, field validated LiDARintensity based maps of inundation were usedintensity based maps of inundation were used to provide cal/val data over a much larger area than would have been possible with field data alone.

Model DevelopmentModel Development

Stepwise linear regression was used to Stepwise linear regression was used to determine which bands, transformations, and indices in combination were most predictive of inundation (R2 = .51; [TCWGD R2 = .41]).

A regression tree (Cubist) was used to create a model of SIP for 2007 based on the most predictive inputs (R2 = .72; linear).

Mean SIP values of the initial 2007 RT prediction were lower than the mean reference SIP within 2% bins

Biases were corrected by fitting a 2nd order polynomial function between mean reference values and mean predictions.

Mean prediction and its standard deviation within 2% bins are shown in a black dot and a gray bar, respectively. The solid and dashed lines represent the 1:1 and fitted lines, respectively.

ConclusionsConclusions

The importance of this study is linked to the The importance of this study is linked to the 40+ year continuous record of Landsatimages, which can now be used to quantify long-term trends in wetland hydrology.

The technique developed as part of this study will enhance our ability to detect influences of climate and land use change on wetland ecosystems and the services which theyecosystems and the services which they provide, and develop adaptation strategies.
