Application of remote sensing data for environmental monitoring in semiarid mountain areas : a case study in Yemen Mountains

Remote sensing has been proved to be a very useful technology in the investigation of surface parameters and environment monitoring when large areas is covered. In this paper, the complementarily between two optical remote sensing data Landsat TM and Radar Sat (OEM) were used to estimate and describ...
