abstract = "The objective of this study is to assess the changes in the
aquatic vegetation in two different water levels of the Tucurui
reservoir. During the SAREX 92 mission, for the first time, remote
sensing data from the rising water stage became available for the
entire reservoir. SAR-C data obtained over the entire reservoir in
the wide mode were processed into a mosaic by the Canadian Centre
for Remote Sensing. This mosaic was used to map the areas occupied
by different stands of aquatic vegetation in April 1992.
TM/Landsat color composite (band 3, 4 and 5)acquired in June 1992
was used to map the stands during the high water stage. The
results showed that differences between SAR and TM data prevented
the accurate assessment of the changes in the area occupied by
aquatic vegetation.",
