Geomorphotectonic effects to determine the weathering front according to spectral reflectivity properties and visual interpretation of (RS) data for the southeastern slopes of Sinjar fold
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study is concerned with determining the prevailing type of weathering for the
southeastern slopes of Mount Sinjar. Therefore, the use of remote sensing data to
solve this issue is one of the most important trends today. In order to employ (RS)
data in this field, the researchers relied on soil moisture and temperature according to
the wavelength of each spot provided by the data of the American satellite (Landsat 8)
and using modern computer software. Each type of surface component was sorted
with a specific wavelength according to its physical and chemical properties,
following its moisture ratios, and then each type was given a specific weight, showing
chemical weathering its dominance in this spot.
