Rethinking microtidal systems: Tidal signatures in the fluvial deposits of the Po River, Italy
ABSTRACT In microtidally influenced rivers, tides are generally assumed to leave virtually no signatures in the sedimentary record. However, this hypothesis has been surprisingly poorly tested using modern river analogues, which provide an opportunity to assess whether sedimentary signatures of microtidal regimes can develop in rivers that lack ...

Estimating above-ground biomass (AGB) is important for ecological assessment, carbon stock evaluation, and forest management. This research assesses the performance of the machine learning algorithms XGBoost, SVM, and RF using data from the Sentinel-2 ...

Assessing Investment in Future Landsat Instruments: The Example of Forest Carbon Offsets [PDF]
We extend the theory of quality-adjusted expenditure indices to estimate benefits from public investment. In particular, we model the selection of new instruments (in the form of remote-sensing devices) to enhance the longest-operating U.S.

ABSTRACT Process‐based depositional models for perennially ice‐covered lakes (PICLs) are important for interpreting palaeolake deposits and their connection to past climate. PICLs are only stable under specific climate states, and unlike other ice‐free or seasonally ice‐covered lakes, PICL deposits generally have bimodal grain sizes: mud introduced by ...

Abstract Agricultural drought significantly threatens food security, livelihoods, and ecosystem stability, especially in regions prone to drought, such as the East Bale zone. This study investigates the spatial and temporal patterns of agricultural drought over 30 years (1993–2024) by combining meteorological station data with satellite‐derived ...

The Impact of Land Use and Land Cover Changes on Runoff Volume for Hydropower
This study investigates the relationship between land use and land cover (LULC) changes, runoff, and hydropower generation. Remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques were used to analyse LULC changes over a 21‐year period. The SCS‐CN hydrological model was applied to estimate runoff, while Flow Duration Curves (FDCs) were ...

The Ground-Based Absolute Radiometric Calibration of the Landsat 9 Operational Land Imager
This paper presents the initial vicarious radiometric calibration results for Landsat 9 OLI using a combination of ground-based techniques and test sites located in Nevada, California, and South Dakota, USA. The field data collection methods include the traditional reflectance-based approach and the automated Radiometric Calibration Test Site (RadCaTS).

ABSTRACT Spatial autocorrelation (SAC) is a critical yet often overlooked component of ecological analyses, which can significantly influence the accuracy and interpretation of statistical models. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the spatial distribution of cyanobacteria biomass among tropical reservoirs at the watershed scale and to identify ...

This study presents the first application of a dual‐band satellite thermal monitoring technique in New Zealand and Tonga, using the 2019 eruption of Whakaari/White Island and the persistently active Lofia crater on Tofua volcano as case studies. At Whakaari/White Island, near‐synchronous Landsat‐8 and Sentinel‐2A data (16 min interval) were analysed ...
