Land surface Sample Clauses

Land surface. ‌ The surface reflectance is represented by the RPV model (Xxxxxx et al. 1993) which has four pa- rameters xs = (ρ0, k, Θ, h) that are all wavelength dependent. The individual contribution of these four parameters to the total surface BRF is illustrated on Figure (2). Specifically, ρ0 controls the mean amplitude of the BRF. This parameter strongly varies with the wavelength and mainly controls the mean surface reflectance. It varies between 0 and 1. k determines the bowl shape of the BRF. It varies between 0 and 2. Θ is the asymmetry parameter of the Xxxxxx-Xxxxxxxxxx phase function and also varies between -1 and 1. Figure 2: Contribution of the four RPV parameters to the total surface BRF. h controls the amplitude of the hot-spot, i.e., the “porosity” of the medium. This parameter takes only positive values and typically varies between 0 and 1. Xxxxxxxx et al. (1996) analysed in detail on the performance and limits of applicability of this para- metric model. The RPV model formally writes rs(x, b; m) = ρ0(λ˜) ρ˘s(k(λ˜), Θ(λ˜), h(λ˜); µ0, −µv, φr) (3) − where ρ0 and ρ˘s(k(λ˜), Θ(λ˜), h(λ˜); µv, µ0, φr) describe the amplitude and the angular field of the surface BRF, respectively.

Related to Land surface

  • Land The real property described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Land”);

  • Surface  Grade and shape the road surface, turnouts, and shoulders to the original shape on the TYPICAL SECTION SHEET. Inslope or outslope as directed to provide a smooth, rut-free traveled surface and maintain surface water runoff in an even, unconcentrated manner.  Blading shall not undercut the backslope or cut into geotextile fabric on the road.  If required by the Contract Administrator, water shall be applied as necessary to control dust and retain fine surface rock.  Surface material shall not be bladed off the roadway. Replace surface material when lost or worn away, or as directed by the Contract Administrator.  Remove shoulder berms, created by grading, to facilitate drainage, except as marked or directed by the Contract Administrator.  For roads with geotextile fabric: spread surface aggregate to fill in soft spots and wheel ruts (barrel spread) to prevent damage to the geotextile fabric.

  • Groundwater The groundwater shall not be degraded as a result of the waste maintained at the facility.

  • Road Surfaces (1) Grade, shape, crown, and/or outslope surface and shoulders.

  • Land Use The current use and occupancy of the Property for hotel purposes are permitted as a matter of right as a principal use under all laws applicable thereto without the necessity of any special use permit, special exception or other special permit, permission or consent.

  • Drainage ▪ Prevent silt bearing road surface and ditch runoff from delivering sediment to any streams or wetlands. ▪ Maintain rolling dips and drivable waterbars as needed to keep them functioning as intended. ▪ Maintain headwalls to the road shoulder level with material that will resist erosion. ▪ Maintain energy dissipaters at culvert outlets with non-erodible material or rock. ▪ Keep ditches, culverts, and other drainage structures clear of obstructions and functioning as intended. ▪ Inspect and clean culverts at least monthly, with additional inspections during storms and periods of high runoff. This shall be done even during periods of inactivity. Preventative Maintenance ▪ Perform preventative maintenance work to safeguard against storm damage, such as blading to ensure correct runoff, ditch and culvert cleaning, and waterbar maintenance.

  • Building With respect to each parcel of Real Estate, all of the buildings, structures and improvements now or hereafter located thereon. Business Day. Any day on which banking institutions located in the same city and State as the Agent’s Head Office are located are open for the transaction of banking business and, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, which also is a LIBOR Business Day.

  • Wetlands When disposing of excess, soil, or other construction materials on public or private property, Contractor shall not fill in or otherwise convert wetlands.

  • Sanitation The Purchaser’s operations, as described by this contract, shall comply with all applicable State laws, rules and regulations concerning sanitation in operations. Refuse resulting from the Purchaser’s activities, including the use, servicing, repair, or abandonment of equipment, shall be removed, buried or otherwise disposed of in a manner that complies with all State laws and meets the approval of the Forest Officer. The Purchaser shall not service tractors, trucks and similar pieces of equipment on lands that directly drain into or are within 100 feet of lakes, streams or recreational facilities. No logging camp will be located on the gross sale area without prior approval by the Forest Officer.
