2 Outline 1. Need for large-area monitoring in the Northwest Territories 2. Potential of Landsat image archive for northern monitoring 3. Change detection using dense Landsat image stacks 4. NWT study regions and methods 5. NWT Trend detection results Landscape disturbances and tundra greening
3 1. Need for large-area monitoring in NWT NWT is a large and sparsely populated territory facing cumulative impacts from development and climate change Inuvik Annual Temperature Means (NWT Environment and Natural Resources) NWT Mines and Exploration Projects (NWT Geoscience Office)
4 1. Need for large-area monitoring in NWT Strong need for comprehensive environmental monitoring recently highlighted in the Rosenberg International Forum report on the Mackenzie River Basin: a strong, well-designed and ongoing monitoring program an absolutely essential precondition for effective management of the Mackenzie River Basin. NWT Cumulative Impacts Monitoring Program (CIMP) Supports numerous initiatives for building monitoring capacity including three projects with CCRS/NRCan involvement aimed at expanding scale of monitoring using EO The NRCan TRACS project also using EO to assess terrain sensitivity to permafrost degradation and potential impacts on transportation networks
5 2. Potential of Landsat Image Archive for Northern Monitoring Landsat has a spatial grain (30 m) and extent (185 km) ideal for large-area monitoring. A rich 28-Year ( ) archive exists for Northern Canada Baseline monitoring and retrospective change analysis can be followed by forward monitoring USGS Archive Holdings WRS-2 Frame Overlap (CIMP study region)
6 3. Change Detecting Using Dense Landsat Image Stacks LandTrendr (Kennedy et al.) With the opening of the Landsat archive, more change detection initiatives have exploited dense time series of imagery (Wulder et al. 2012, RSE) Kennedy, Cohen et al. (LandTrendr), Huang et al., Masek et al., (Vegetation Change Tracker), Vogelman et al., Goodwin et al., Schroeder et al. Most have studied temperate forested ecosystems few the North Masek et al. 2012, Fraser et al., 2012 CCRS and Parks Canada investigated potential for using Landsat image stacks to monitor northern parks (ParkSPACE) ParkSPACE Ivvavik National Park Shrub
7 4. Current NWT Landsat Analysis Landsat Study Regions Goal: Investigate potential to use Landsat archive for monitoring a range of landscape changes in NWT CIMP Study Regions: 1.Peel Plateau and Mackenzie Delta (NWT CIMP projects) 2.Great Slave Geological Province (TRACS projects) TRACS
8 4. Image Stack Change Method 1. Build 25-year Landsat Image Stack Cloud/shadow/SLC masking, TOA reflectance, peak-phenology screening using AVHRR/MODIS 2. Extract Pixel Time Series Values Unique database for each pixel of six Vegetation Indices 3. Derive Linear Trends in Landsat Indices (e.g. Tasseled Cap Brightness, Greenness, Wetness) 6. Relate TC Trends to Changes in Vegetation Composition (Scale up high res training data using regression trees) 5. Create Trend Images (RBG= TCB, TCG, TCW) 6. Change Classification Product (Decision tree classifier with ancillary GIS data)
9 Methods: RGB Composite Trend Images for Visualizing Physical Changes TC Brightness Trend TC Greenness Trend TC Wetness Trend Interpretation Key Red = B G W (e.g. veg bare, dev.) Yellow = B G W (e.g. water veg, fire regen) RGB Composite Image draining lakes B=Brightness Change (red channel) G=Greenness Change (green channel) W=Wetness Change (blue channel) Blue = B G W (e.g. forest succession, slump disturbance) Light Blue = B G W (e.g. veg growth over bare) fire gravel pit

14 Landsat Trends ( ) Fire and Shallow Lake Drainage Higher prevalence of lake drainage in post-fire areas likely related to permafrost degradation Landsat TC Trends ( ) Yellow = B G W (e.g. water veg) GNWT ELC (2005)
