DEM in quantitative analysis of structural geomorphology: application and prospect

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao, 2021
Digital elevation model (DEM) is used to realize the digital simulation of terrain surface (i.e. the digital representation of terrain surface shape) through the limited terrain elevation data.

A Comprehensive Assessment of Floodwater Depth Estimation Models in Semiarid Regions

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 58, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Simple models continue to be important for continental‐scale floodwater depth mapping due to the prohibitively expensive cost of calibrating and applying hydrodynamic models. This paper investigates the accuracy of three simple models for floodwater depth estimation from remote sensing derived water extent and/or Digital Elevation Models (DEMs)

Using historical aerial images to accurately locate the urban "invisible" active faults: A case study of the Shuiyu fault of the Datong Basin in Shanxi province

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao, 2021
Active fault is a major risk source of urban earthquake disaster. Accurately identifying the spatial geometry distribution features of active fault is the basis for urban seismic risk migration.

Sea Ice Elevation in the Western Weddell Sea, Antarctica: Observations From Field Campaign

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Sea ice elevation is crucial in the characterization of three‐dimensional (3D) sea ice patterns, providing physical insights to advance sea ice dynamic models. Moreover, how sea ice elevation may be related to the ocean geophysical environment is still a significant knowledge gap, especially in Antarctica.
