A REVIEW OF APPLICATIONS OF REMOTE SENSING IN THE STUDY OF LAKE ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH

Over the past 10 years,with the constant enrichment of the content of lakes research and improvement of research methods,rich achievements have been obtained in lake research.Remote sensing techniques,as a scientific and rapid investigation and monitoring tool,have been widely applied in the area of lake environment research.This paper mainly introduces major research progress in applications of remote sensing techniques in eight aspects:monitoring of lake water quality,measurements and tests of lake hydrological parameter,investigation of lake changes,monitoring of lake ice,investigation of lake use,investigation of the lake geo-environment,eco-environmental surveys of lake areas and paleolake and archeological surveys.Moreover,this paper provides an overview of the application prospects of various types of remote sensing data sources and remote sensing information retrieval techniques in the area of lake environmental research.
