An Examination of Spectral Reflectance Properties of some Wetland Plants in Göksu Delta, Turkey

Year 2018, Volume: 13 Issue: 4, 194 - 203, 31.12.2018

Abstract

Abstract: In recent years, the importance of wetlands better
understood and included among the priority areas for conservation in Turkey and
the world. A significant number of researchers have examined wetlands due to
their various valuable aspects such as diverse vegetation, feeding and shelter
areas for many species of birds and positive effects on water quality. Remote sensing data are becoming an
important source of information for assessment of wetland health and quality. Traditional
methods are time consuming, expensive and
labor intensive. In this study, the spectral
properties of some wetland plants (Phragmites, Typha, Scirpus and Juncus) found
in wetlands located on the Göksu delta were examined in the scope of The
Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey funded project
(110Y295). Handheld spectroradiometer was used to determine the spectral
properties of selected wetland plants. Reflectance measurements were conducted
on May 28, July 16, September 18 and November 16 and on March 12 (2013).
According to results, typical vegetation spectral curves were obtained for all
species.  All resembled typical upland
vegetation curves, with higher reflectance values at wavelength of 700
nanometers (near infrared) as compared to visible wavelengths (400-700 nm) and
a green peak around 560 nm.
