ACMI: An index for exposed coal mapping using Landsat imagery [PDF]
Remotely sensing the spatial distribution of exposed coal (EC) is significant for understanding the footprints of mining activities. However, widely applicable methods for the identification of EC surfaces remain inadequate because the choices of recent methods confront the diverse EC types and backgrounds.

Monitoring and understanding the complexity and overall long‐term trends of the ecological consequences of multiple mining activities over large areas has been a challenge. Here, we propose a general framework for continuous monitoring of land use and vegetation dynamics in mine sites. We found that vegetation dynamics showed great heterogeneity across
