Assessing water availability in Mediterranean regions affected by water conflicts through MODIS data time series analysis [PDF]

, 2019
Water scarcity is a widespread problem in arid and semi-arid regions such as the western Mediterranean coastal areas. The irregularity of the precipitation generates frequent droughts that exacerbate the conflicts among agriculture, water supply and ...

ECOSTRESS‐derived semi‐arid forest temperature and evapotranspiration estimates demonstrate drought and thinning impacts

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that ECOSTRESS lands surface temperature (LST) data are sensitive to forest thinning, regional drought, and their interaction. Consistent with high‐resolution UAV images, ECOSTRESS LST data indicate thinned forest had significantly greater temperature across years.

Hookworm Infection and Environmental Factors in Mbeya Region, Tanzania: A Cross-sectional, Population-based study. [PDF]

, 2013
Hookworm disease is one of the most common infections and cause of a high disease burden in the tropics and subtropics. Remotely sensed ecological data and model-based geostatistics have been used recently to identify areas in need for hookworm control ...

Impacts of Land Use/Land Cover Distributions and Vegetation Amount on Land Surface Temperature Simulation in East China

Earth and Space Science, 2021
Land surface temperature (LST) plays a crucial role in the earth system because its heterogeneous spatial distributions can trigger local circulations through land surface‐atmosphere interactions.

A spatiotemporal analysis of the relationship between near-surface air temperature and satellite land surface temperatures using 17 years of data from the ATSR series [PDF]

, 2017
The relationship between satellite land surface temperature (LST) and ground-based observations of 2m air temperature (T2m) is characterised in space and time using >17 years of data. The analysis uses a new monthly LST climate data record (CDR) based on

Monitoring Land Surface Temperature (LST) and Land Cover of Basra Province using Remote Sensing Technique and GIS

Iraqi Journal of Physics, 2023
This study investigates the changes occurring in the province of Basra using geospatial methods and analyzes the variations in land surface temperature among the various types of land cover. For the months of July and December in the years 2013 and 2021, Landsat images were used in Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS, and satellite images were processed using ArcGIS 10.

Impact of emerging compound droughts on forests: A water supply and demand perspective

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines the physiological and ecological responses of trees to emerging compound droughts from a water demand and supply perspective, as well as the role of acclimation and consequences for ecosystem‐level functions. Abstract The intensification of climate change‐induced drought results in unprecedented tree and forest die‐offs worldwide ...
