Application of Landsat Thematic Mapping to geology and salinity in the Murray Basin

In hydrological and geological studies in the Murray Basin, composite images derived from Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) digital data enable excellent delineation of both ancient and active groundwater discharge zones, including strong zoning within active salinas. Differentiation of aeolian deposits, including lunettes, is possible only where there are distinctive vegetation associations.
