Vulnerability to Dams of the Last Undammed Large Rivers of Southeast Asia
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The vast majority of large Eurasian rivers are regulated by hydropower dams, but some have survived as free‐flowing rivers so far in the Arctic and along stretches of the Myanmar coast. There, the Ayeyarwady (Irrawaddy) and Salween Rivers, two of the largest rivers of Southeast Asia, provide a huge amount of sediment, nurturing floodplains and

Deriving Tidal Structure From Satellite Image Time Series
Earth and Space Science, 2020 In shallow coastal regions, tides often control the water flux, which in turn directs sediment transport, nutrient delivery, and geochemical gradients.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Remote sensing can reveal population dynamics of Antarctic penguin colonies. In this study, we analyze emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) guano stains in remote sensing imagery and discover colony presence predating known records for 18 colonies across Antarctica.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Cycles of dieback and recovery drove mangrove forest dynamics at the Albert and Leichhardt Rivers (Gulf of Carpentaria, Queensland, Australia) over 36 years (1987–2023). Landward margins were the most affected by reduced tidal inundation when the alignment of low lunar declination suppressed tidal range and extreme El Niño phases lowered mean sea level.

Broad-area-search of new construction using time series analysis of Landsat and Sentinel-2 data
Science of Remote SensingNew construction activities can alter surface albedo and structure, which then affect surface temperature and roughness, and hence have a significant impact on urban climate.

Environmental Stressors Influence Spatial Complexity in a Fluvial Macrophyte meadow
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.This research investigates the nonlinear relationships between environmental stressors and the fine‐scale spatial complexity of a fluvial macrophytes meadow. The use of multivariate spatial analysis allowed us to identify two major environmental gradients (nutrients and light) and two major complexity gradients (related to abundance and fragmentation).

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Brazil's Cerrado valley wetlands—swamp savanna and gallery forest—are highly important for the biome's water cycle and carbon storage and are susceptible to degradation from the impacts of land use expansion and the climate crisis. In support of their detailed monitoring and assessment, we developed and tested a transferable mapping approach that ...
