abstract = "Mapping of a tonal anomaly in an area of hydrocarbon microseepage
was possible using a Landsat-Thematic Mapper false-colour
composite consisting of TM2/3, TM4/3 and of the difference
TW.3-TM4/3, displayed as red, green and blue respectively. In this
false-colour composite, green and yellow express variations in the
vegetation cover, whereas hues of magenta are related to terrain
conditions representing bleached materials, which occur close to
the centre of a soil gas anomaly. Simultaneous occurrence of
anomalous soil gas values with magnetic and radioactive minerals
suggests that a reducing environment associated with the
microseepage phenomenon created the bleached materials, identified
as a tonal anomaly in the enhanced TM image.",
