Estimation of biophysical properties of woodland canopies using LiDAR and hyperspectral imagery (2012)
Thesis
Janardhan, V. Estimation of biophysical properties of woodland canopies using LiDAR and hyperspectral imagery. (Thesis). University of Salford

Vegetation canopies represent the interface between the atmosphere and the biosphere and play an important role in determining energy and mass exchange. Accurate characterisation of vegetation canopy characteristics is therefore important to under...

Mapping hydraulic biotopes using terrestrial laser scan data of water surface properties (2010)
Journal Article
Milan, D., Heritage, G., Large, A., & Entwistle, N. (2010). Mapping hydraulic biotopes using terrestrial laser scan data of water surface properties. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 35(8), 918-931. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.1948

For more than a decade, habitat mapping using biotopes (in-channel hydraulically-defi ned habitats) has underpinned aquatic conservation in the UK through (a) providing baseline information on system complexity and (b) allowing environmental and ec...

Repeat terrestrial laser scanner survey of pebble cluster creation and formation in response to flow change
Presentation / Conference
Entwistle, N., Heritage, G., Johnson, K., & Hetherington, D. Repeat terrestrial laser scanner survey of pebble cluster creation and formation in response to flow change. Presented at Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry Society Annual Conference, 2007. RSPSoc 2007 challenges for Earth observation: scientific, technical and commercial, Newcastle ­upon ­Tyne, UK

Water flow level in river channels is moderated by the interaction with the roughness of the surface over which it flows. The interaction is highly complex and remains poorly understood despite its economic and social importance in flood level foreca...

The impact of floodplain degradation on flooding in the UK
Presentation / Conference
Entwistle, N., & Heritage, G. The impact of floodplain degradation on flooding in the UK. Presented at 37th IAHR World Congress, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

A review of floodplain functioning in the north of England following the winter storms of 2015 was conducted using high resolution aerial imagery of the events captured using drone and helicopter survey during and immediately after the flooding. Th... Read More about The impact of floodplain degradation on flooding in the UK.
