A technique for sub-pixel temperature retrieval from multispectral imagery and its application to Quesnel Lake, British Columbia Sentlinger, Gabriel Isaac

Abstract

Water temperature is a significant environmental indicator in lakes, rivers and streams. It is important to many resource management and environmental fields: forestry practices in adjacent lands modify runoff patterns which in-turn affects water temperatures; accelerated glacial melting caused by climate change increases the flux of cold water; and spawning salmon stocks are lethally affected by thermal shock from small (
