Specifically, the Digital Earth Australia (DEA) Tasseled Cap Percentiles products, integrated with the coefficient of greenness and/or wetness, are applied in three case study regions in Australia to identify and characterise potential terrestrial and aquatic groundwater dependent ecosystems (GDE). The identified high potential GDE are consistent with existing GDE mapping, providing confidence in the methodology developed. The approach provides a consistent and rapid first-pass approach for identifying and assessing GDEs, especially in remote areas of Australia lacking detailed GDE and vegetation information. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[112.0, -44.0], [154.0, -44.0], [154.0, -9.0], [112.0, -9.0], [112.0, -44.0]]]} 112.0 154.0 -44.0 -9.0 EFTF – Exploring For The Future EFTF – Exploring for the Future Georgina Basin Groundwater hydrology National Groundwater Systems Northern Territory Published_External Queensland South Nicholson Basin groundwater dependent ecosystem groundwater dependent vegetation remote sensing tasseled cap upper burdekin upper darling Download Report (pdf) [31.9 MB] documentDigital Download Report (pdf) [31.9 MB] PDF
