A physical-based two-source evapotranspiration model with Monin–Obukhov similarity theory
GIScience & Remote Sensing, 2021 Accurate quantification of energy budget components and its partitioning between canopy and soil is essential for improving water resource management. During the last few decades, several two-source evapotranspiration (ET) models have been developed by ...

The first 25 years of satellite carbonate sedimentology: What have we learned?
The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Observations of the suspension and transport of carbonate sediments from reefs, banks and shallow shelves have been made by satellite instruments for ca 25 years. With an increasing number of instruments in space, providing advanced observational capabilities, remarkable insights have been gained concerning carbonate sedimentological processes. Details

Scalogram habitat measures as predictors of bird abundance
Ecography, EarlyView.Birds select habitat characteristics, such as variability in habitat structure, across multiple spatial scales (grain and extent). Measuring habitat variability at multiple scales can better capture factors that influence avifauna communities than focusing on one scale only. One valuable tool in assessing habitat heterogeneity is the cumulative dynamic

Semantically-consistent Landsat 8 image to Sentinel-2 image translation for alpine areas [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The availability of frequent and cost-free satellite images is in growing demand in the research world. Such satellite constellations as Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 provide a massive amount of valuable data daily. However, the discrepancy in the sensors' characteristics of these satellites makes it senseless to use a segmentation model trained on either ...

Ecography, EarlyView.The species–area relationship (SAR) on islands describes how the numbers of species increase with increasing island size (or island‐like habitat, such as lakes). Despite its conceptual importance, there is considerable uncertainty surrounding its shape in freshwater lakes, as well as the potential mechanisms that underlie the SAR.

The effects of urban land cover dynamics on urban heat Island intensity and temporal trends
GIScience & Remote Sensing, 2021 Assessments of surface urban heat island (UHI) have focused on using remote sensing and land cover data to quantify UHI intensity and spatial distribution within a certain time period by including land cover information.

Ecography, EarlyView.Prey species adjust their behavior along human‐use gradients by balancing risks from predators and humans. During hunting seasons, prey often exhibit strong antipredator responses to humans but may develop tolerance in suburban areas to exploit human‐mediated resources.
