AMSR2 Soil Moisture Downscaling Using Temperature and Vegetation Data [PDF]
Soil moisture (SM) applications in terrestrial hydrology require higher spatial resolution soil moisture products than those provided by passive microwave remote sensing instruments (grid resolution of 9 km or larger). In this investigation, an innovative algorithm that uses visible/infrared remote sensing observations to downscale Advanced Microwave ...

Modeling Ringed and Bearded Seal Future Habitats Indicates Stability, Shifts, and Refugia. [PDF]
Every year, ringed seals and bearded seals rely on specific ice and snow conditions to support events such as feeding or reproduction. With Earth System Models, we simulate habitat over 1850–2100, revealing a relatively stable past habitat contrasting with rapid regional shifts in contemporary simulations and future projections.
