The analysis of remote sensing indices to grasshopper outbreak is the base to develop the prediction model for grasshopper outbreak. A ratio based formulae for grasshopper outbread from Landsat 5 TM imagery
namely
RIG =(TM4+TM7)/TM6
was presented
according to the mechanism of remote sensing of grasshopper outbreak. The new algorithm( RIG ) and two kinds of standard algorithms(the normalized difference vegetation index NDVI and the soil adjusted vegetation index SAVI ) were used to test significance levels for t tests of differences between mean Values of grasshopper site and non site respectively
combining with grasshopper outbreak information from field sampling in the region around Qinghai lake. The results showed that the RIG presented was superior to standard vegetation indices( NDVI and SAVI ) used commonly at densities≥15 and≥25 grasshoppers/m 2; while inferior to NDVI and SAVI at densities≥5 grasshoppers/m 2. Therefore
the RIG is able to monitor grasshopper outbreak.
