Floods From Space: How Remote Sensing, AI, and Cloud Platforms Are Reshaping Disaster Risk Reduction

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most damaging climate‐related hazards globally, yet flood remote sensing has historically developed largely along sensor‐specific pathways. This review addresses the need for a systematic and decision‐oriented synthesis of how space‐borne remote sensing has evolved toward integrated flood monitoring and disaster ...

Identification of Mangrove Changes in the Mahakam Delta in 2007-2017 Using Alos/Palsar and Landsat

open access: yes, 2022
The mangrove area in the Mahakam Delta has dynamically changed due to the land-use conversion for various purposes. Various remote sensing data can monitor the changes, for example, ALOS/PALSAR and Landsat imagery. However, there are limited studies that

Zagros Restoration: Smart Choices for Oak Forests

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10284-10307, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Widespread forest degradation across the northern Zagros region of Iran driven by both human activity and natural processes has created an urgent need for targeted afforestation and forest enrichment strategies. Hence, the aim of this study was identifying the most suitable native tree and shrub species for restoring degraded forest areas in ...

Fault‐controlled uplift segmentation and crust–mantle heterogeneity in the topographic evolution of the Sındırgı Segment (Western Anatolia) ruptured during the 2025 M6.1 earthquake sequence

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
Swath profile along the Sındırgı Segment. Grey curves show minimum, mean and maximum elevations, and the thick grey line shows elevation‐corrected Moho depth. Coloured circles indicate relative rock uplift from river‐profile inversion while the red curve shows cumulative uplift.

I'll Be Dammed: Efficiency and Cost‐Analysis of a Rehabilitated Prehispanic Dam in the Andes

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Within archaeology there is a growing shift away from the purely aesthetic towards making the past relevant to present and future needs and demands. The Past Water Futures project charts the impact of ancient dam rehabilitation on climate change‐induced water scarcity in the North Central Andes.

Permafrost Distribution in the Canadian Rockies: Key Variables Influencing Patch‐Scale Variability

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 372-390, July/September 2026.
ABSTRACT The spatial distribution of permafrost in mountainous regions is influenced by various factors such as topography, climate, vegetation, and substrate. Despite the existence of comprehensive permafrost maps at national and global levels, they fail to accurately represent the patch‐scale (e.g., < 25 m) permafrost distribution in characteristic ...

Mapping land subsidence over the eastern Beijing city using satellite radar interferometry

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth, 2018
Beijing City has suffered from groundwater-induced subsidence since the late 1930s and the over-exploration of groundwater could lead to subsidence as much as −12.0 cm yr−1. Previous studies on the ground deformation at Beijing City mainly focused on the
