Measurements of Water Vapor Profiles with Compact DIAL in the Tokyo Metropolitan Area

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
In recent years, the frequency of occurrence of locally heavy rainfall that can cause extensive damages, has been increasing in Japan. For early prediction of heavy rainfall, it is useful to measure the water vapor vertical distribution upwind cumulus ...

Improved Simulations of the Quasi‐Biennial Oscillation in the Lower Stratosphere of an Earth System Model

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Numerical experimentation using an atmospheric configuration of the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) Earth System Model is used to examine the vertical structure of the simulated Quasi‐Biennial Oscillation (QBO). Using an improved representation of the parameterized gravity wave spectrum, it is demonstrated that with sufficient vertical ...

Latent Heat Fluxes over Complex Terrain Measured by Airborne Water Vapour and Wind Lidars

, 2010
The combination of a water vapour and a wind lidar on an aircraft is an interesting new tool that allows to measure latent heat flux profiles and to portray the small- to mesoscale variability beneath the aircraft trajectory with high accuracy and ...

The underappreciated roles of fog and dew on vegetation and biocrusts

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 46-63, July 2026.
Summary Fog and dew represent minor components of ecosystem water budgets in most ecosystems. However, fog and dew can play an essential role in ecosystem dynamics and are particularly important for water‐limited systems. In addition to serving as direct water inputs, fog and dew can influence microclimate and water redistribution, thereby promoting ...

Simultaneous Generation of Topographic Models and Manning Roughness Coefficient Maps From Tri‐Stereoscopic Satellite Images: Application to the Huarmey River, Peru

The Photogrammetric Record, Volume 41, Issue 195, July/September 2026.
Tri‐stereoscopic PeruSat‐1 imagery enables the simultaneous generation of 0.70 m‐resolution topography and spatially distributed Manning roughness maps, achieving 0.434 m vertical accuracy. Integrated into HEC‐RAS, these products provide consistent, high‐resolution inputs that improve hydraulic modelling and flood risk assessment in data‐scarce river ...

Latent Heat Fluxes over Complex Terrain from Airborne Water Vapour and Wind Lidars

, 2009
Tropospheric profiles of water vapour and wind were measured with a differential absorption lidar (DIAL) and a heterodyne detection Doppler wind lidar collo-cated onboard the DLR Falcon research aircraft in the past two years.

Development of an advanced Two-Micron triple-pulse IPDA lidar for carbon dioxide and water vapor measurements

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
An advanced airborne triple-pulse 2-μm integrated path differential absorption (IPDA) lidar is under development at NASA Langley Research Center that targets both carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O) measurements simultaneously and independently ...

Remote Sensing for Monitoring and Managing Urban Soils in Coastal Areas: A Review

Soil Use and Management, Volume 42, Issue 3, July‐September 2026.
ABSTRACT Coastal urban soils (CUS) exhibit distinct physical–chemical properties due to the combined effects of intense interaction among anthropogenic and natural pressures, resulting in a unique, complex and highly vulnerable system. While CUS are vital for the urban coastal environment and its inhabitants, numerous factors significantly threaten ...
