Spectral Characteristics of Seagrass with Landsat TM in Northern Sabah Coastline, Malaysia

The spectral characteristics of Landsat TM bands 1, 2 and 3 were examined over identified seagrass area in the South China Sea, off northern coastline of Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. Two seagrass types namely the low and high dense classes were used in this study. Two main extraction techniques...
