Sand‐Hungry: Accumulations, Erosions, and the Self‐Feeding Logic of Beach Renourishment
Abstract This paper interrogates the metaphor of beach renourishment to show how this common coastal engineering practice feeds its own logic. In a coastal town in Florida, renourishment (the practice of dredging sand to combat erosion) shores up the coastline materially and, importantly, politically, as a wider beachfront protects coastal property ...

Learning without Exact Guidance: Updating Large-scale High-resolution Land Cover Maps from Low-resolution Historical Labels [PDF]
Large-scale high-resolution (HR) land-cover mapping is a vital task to survey the Earth's surface and resolve many challenges facing humanity. However, it is still a non-trivial task hindered by complex ground details, various landforms, and the scarcity of accurate training labels over a wide-span geographic area.

ABSTRACT Recreational trails, including informal trails created by visitors, have a range of ecological impacts, but mapping and assessing these impacts can be expensive and time‐consuming. It is increasingly possible to harness publicly available data posted by park visitors to fitness platforms and combine it with other spatial and field data to help
