Multi-center Airborne Coherent Atmospheric Wind Sensor (MACAWS) [PDF]
This effort involves development of a calibrated, pulsed coherent CO2 Doppler lidar, followed by a carefully-planned and -executed program of multi-dimensional wind velocity and aerosol backscatter measurements from the NASA DC-8 research aircraft.

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Partial Entrance Restriction as a Potential Tidal Flood Mitigation Strategy in a Large Urban Estuary
ABSTRACT Tidal flooding in estuaries is expected to worsen as sea‐level rise (SLR) continues to accelerate and increases storm surge height. Conventional structural defences are often unsustainable, while nature‐based solutions like managed realignment require extensive land to be repurposed.

Airborne Dual-Wavelength LiDAR Data for Classifying Land Cover
This study demonstrated the potential of using dual-wavelength airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data to classify land cover. Dual-wavelength LiDAR data were acquired from two airborne LiDAR systems that emitted pulses of light in near ...

Remote sensing of tidal networks and their relation to vegetation [PDF]
The study of the morphology of tidal networks and their relation to salt marsh vegetation is currently an active area of research, and a number of theories have been developed which require validation using extensive observations. Conventional methods of

Machine Learning Reveals Hidden Bias in ERA5 Cloud Heights Over Earth's Third Pole
Abstract Accurate cloud base height (CBH) over the Tibetan Plateau—Earth's Third Pole—is essential for monsoon dynamics, glacial melt, and water security, yet ERA5 systematically underestimates it. Here, we present a two‐step machine learning framework to mitigate this hidden bias.

Abstract Basin‐wide snow depth (SD) maps can support operational water supply assessments, but their availability is limited by measurement costs (airborne) or sampling constraints (satellite and drone). We present Swath‐random forest (RF), a methodology that trains random forests on SD measured within a narrow swath (<10% of a basin) to extrapolate ...
