Sub-pixel Analysis of Invasive Species in Coastal Wetlands

Allison designed and completed this research project to assess the capabilities of a new satellite image analysis approach, sub-pixel analysis, to detect and quantify the extent of an invasive species, Phragmites australis, in Delaware’s coastal wetlands. In parallel, she used multi-year aerial photo interpretation to map Phragmites extent and to quantify changes in its distribution over time. Results from this study were provided to Delaware state wetland managers in order to assist in assessing their management practices and invasive species control program.
