Abstract

This chapter reviews the values of landscape cover thermodynamic variables based on multispectral measurements of reflected solar radiation by Landsat 5 and 7 satellite systems at the local level (Central Forest State Nature Reserve, Tver Region, 1 pixel = 30 × 30m) and MODIS Terra at the regional level (East-European plain, MOD09A1 product, 1 pixel = 1 × 1 km). The calculation of the thermodynamic variables of the landscape cover is based on the nonextensive statistical mechanics model, which is a more general case of the classical mechanics and allows estimating the degree of nonlinearity of relations in a system and the degree of its organization.
