Monitoring Flood Inundation Dynamics From Space
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.Abstract With the increasing intensity and frequency of flood events worldwide, the need for accurate and timely inundation mapping has never been more critical. Large‐scale flood extent estimations are vital for coordinating effective disaster response, facilitating recovery, and building future resilience.

Antarctic summer sea ice concentration and extent: comparison of ODEN 2006 ship observations, satellite passive microwave and NIC sea ice charts [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2009 Antarctic sea ice cover has shown a slight increase (<1%/decade) in overall observed ice extent as derived from satellite mapping from 1979 to 2008, contrary to the decline observed in the Arctic regions.

Evaluation of a global soil moisture product from finer spatial resolution sar data and ground measurements at Irish sites [PDF]
, 2014 In the framework of the European Space Agency Climate Change Initiative, a global, almost daily, soil moisture (SM) product is being developed from passive and active satellite microwave sensors, at a coarse spatial resolution.

Soil Moisture Buffers the Impact of Precipitation Variability on Ecosystem Productivity
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Water availability governs ecosystem productivity, yet estimates of vegetation sensitivity to water can differ greatly depending on whether the sensitivity is examined spatially or temporally. In particular, the spatial sensitivity is often reported to be much stronger than temporal sensitivities, leading to highly uncertain projections of ...

Three-way error analysis between AATSR, AMSR-E and in situ sea surface temperature observations [PDF]
, 2008 Using co-locations of three different observation types of sea surface temperatures (SSTs) gives enough information to enable the standard deviation of error on each observation type to be derived.

Assimilation of Passive and Active Microwave Soil Moisture Retrievals [PDF]
, 2012 Root-zone soil moisture is an important control over the partition of land surface energy and moisture, and the assimilation of remotely sensed near-surface soil moisture has been shown to improve model profile soil moisture [1].

Wind Forcing and Warm Water Upwelling in a Recurring Beaufort Shelf Polynya
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The Beaufort Shelf has historically been reported to exhibit limited polynya activity in winter. Yet, recent satellite observations show episodic recurrence of a large polynya west of Mackenzie Canyon, a site of significant shelf‐basin exchange.

Remote sensing of coccolithophore blooms in selected oceanic regions using the PhytoDOAS method applied to hyper-spectral satellite data [PDF]
, 2012 In this study temporal variations of coccolithophore blooms are investigated using satellite data. Eight years (from 2003 to 2010) of data of SCIAMACHY, a hyper-spectral satellite sensor on-board ENVISAT, were processed by the PhytoDOAS method to monitor
