Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the use of multidate satellite optical imagery to characterize the exoatmospheric reflectance phenology of five wetland plant communities. Prior knowledge of the size and bearing of the wetland communities were known from visits to various sites. Some very broad knowledge of the wetland plants and their cycles were extracted from a limited amount of aerial photographs
