Abstract :
The moisture and temperature conditions of a lahar deposit was investigated combining field survey and satellite image analysis. Characteristics of the deposit, such as moisture, temperature, particle size, and spectral reflectance were obtained by field survey. Referring to these field survey results, areal analysis on the relationship between moisture and temperature, temporal change of their distribution, and their condition for recovery was carried out using LANDSAT/TM images
