Assessment of CYGNSS Wind Speed Retrieval Uncertainty

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2019
Measurements of near surface wind speed made by the Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) constellation of GNSS-R satellites are evaluated and their uncertainty is assessed in two ways. A bottom-up assessment begins with a model for the error in engineering measurements and propagates that error through the wind speed retrieval algorithm ...

The Potential of Hydrogeodesy to Address Water‐Related and Sustainability Challenges

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 60, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract Increasing climatic and human pressures are changing the world's water resources and hydrological processes at unprecedented rates. Understanding these changes requires comprehensive monitoring of water resources. Hydrogeodesy, the science that measures the Earth's solid and aquatic surfaces, gravity field, and their changes over time ...

Diurnal Vegetation Moisture Cycle in the Amazon and Response to Water Stress

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 19, 16 October 2024.
Abstract Water stress in the Amazon is exacerbated by rising temperatures and reduced moisture levels. However, understanding forest responses to increased aridity is hindered by limited in situ water potential observations in the Amazon. Remote sensing of water content has emerged as a promising metric.

Capturing Urban Heterogeneity Enhances Tropical Cyclones Simulation in Houston

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 19, 16 October 2024.
Abstract Urbanization in the coastal region has increased socioeconomic losses from landfalling tropical cyclones (TCs). Although previous studies have explored the broad impacts of urbanization on TCs, the effect of heterogeneity caused by local intra‐urban variability has not been examined.

Underestimation of Methane Emissions From the Sudd Wetland: Unraveling the Impact of Wetland Extent Dynamics

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 16, 28 August 2024.
Abstract Tropical wetlands account for ∼20% of the global total methane (CH4) emissions, but uncertainties remain in emission estimation due to the inaccurate representation of wetland spatiotemporal variations. Based on the latest satellite observational inundation data, we constructed a model to map the long‐term time series of wetland extents over ...

The Longwave Cloud‐Radiative Feedback in Tropical Waves Derived by Different Precipitation Data Sets

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 11, 16 June 2024.
Abstract Anomalous tropical longwave cloud‐radiative heating of the atmosphere is generated when convective precipitation occurs, which plays an important role in the dynamics of tropical disturbances. Defining the observed cloud‐radiative feedback as the reduction of top‐of‐atmosphere longwave radiative cooling per unit precipitation, the feedback ...
