Turbulent snow transport and accumulation: New reduced‐order models and diagnostics

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Our new reduced‐order models of snow particle transport provide high‐fidelity calculations of snow accumulation in turbulent flows at significantly reduced computational costs. Additional accumulation diagnostics from the reduced‐order model predict complex patterns of particle concentration in turbulent boundary layers via coherent flow structures in ...

Mapping River Bed Topography in Whitewater Rapids Using Bathymetric LiDAR

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bathymetric LiDAR captures river topography efficiently for clear and shallow water, but for mountain rivers, whitewater rapids still pose challenges. This study proposes a novel method to enable the extraction of bottom returns specifically in turbulent whitewater sections.

The use of terrestrial laser scanning for measurements in shallow-water : correction of the 3D coordinates of the point cloud [PDF]

, 2015
Although acoustic measurements are a wide-spread technique in the field of bathymetry, most systems require a water depth of at least 2 m. Furthermore, mapping shallow-water depths with acoustic techniques is expensive and complicated.

Building reconstruction from airborne laser scanning data [PDF]

Geo-spatial Information Science, 2013
The research on building model reconstruction has been a long-term hot topic in both the photogrammetry and computer vision areas. The airborne laser scanning technique provides new opportunities for building model reconstruction. Despite many investigations on building reconstruction using point clouds, there are still many unresolved problems that ...

Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Spectral characterization of plant diversity in a biodiversity‐enriched oil palm plantation

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
How well can airborne imaging spectroscopy detect plant diversity in vertically complex agroforestry systems? We tested this in a biodiversity‐enriched oil palm plantation in Sumatra, Indonesia, using high‐resolution hyperspectral data. We calculated spectral alpha and beta diversity and compared them to field‐based plant diversity.

Exploiting Full-Waveform Lidar Data and Multiresolution Wavelet Analysis for Vertical Object Detection and Recognition [PDF]

, 2007
A current challenge in performing airport obstruction surveys using airborne lidar is lack of reliable, automated methods for extracting and attributing vertical objects from the lidar data.

Airborne laser scanning raster data visualization

, 2017
This guide provides an insight into a range of visualization techniques for high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs). It is provided in the context of investigation and interpretation of various types of historical and modern, cultural and natural small-scale relief features and landscape structures.
