Suitable habitat of Himalayan wolf in Upper Mustang, Annapurna Conservation Area, Nepal

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Decades ago, the Himalayan wolf Canis lupus chanco, a genetically distinct sub‐species of the gray wolf Canis lupus, faced persecution by local communities in the Nepalese Himalayas. Recently, wolf populations have returned and recolonized, sparking concerns about conflicts over livestock depredation, and emphasizing the urgent need for comprehensive ...

The Benefits of High Resolution Multispectral TIR Data and Its Impending Loss by NASA After Four Decades

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract NASA has led multispectral (≥3 wavelength bands) thermal infrared (TIR) sensor development from the earliest days of the agency. These data are critical in addressing a wide range of scientific questions and administration priories by measuring both temperature (for wildfire and volcanic eruption monitoring, agricultural plant stress, and ...

Comparative Assessment of Landsat‐8 and SPOT‐7 Satellite Data With Field Spectral Measurements for Estimating Plant Diversity in Sandy Grasslands

open access: yesBiological Diversity, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 136-148, September 2026.
We compared Landsat‐8 OLI, SPOT, and hyperspectral data for estimating vascular plant diversity in China's Hunshandak Sandland. SPOT data showed the strongest correlation with alpha diversity, followed by hyperspectral data, with Landsat‐8 performing the weakest.

Desertification monitoring by LANDSAT TM satellite imagery

open access: yesForest Science and Technology, 2011
The desertification tendency of the Qubqi Desert in China for 10 years was investigated using vegetation and soil change indices extracted from seven LANDSAT TM images. To identify the desertification tendency, two methods were applied. In the first, the desertification extent and tendency were determined by classifying the land cover into the ...

Effects of Meadow Connectivity on Plant Diversity in China's Poyang Lake: New Perspective of Effective Biodiversity Conservation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Higher meadow connectivity leads to greater plant species richness but also increases plant community similarity. Functional connectivity explains plant diversity patterns better than structural connectivity. ABSTRACT The increasing global habitat fragmentation has led to a marked decline in landscape connectivity, posing a severe threat to ...

Mapping the bathymetry of coral islands with the Landsat series: Quantitative evaluation of the consistency and temporal change detection

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Landsat series data (Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper (TM), Landsat-7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+), Landsat-8 Operational Land Imager (OLI), and Landsat-9 OLI2) hold significant potential for detecting temporal changes of underwater terrain in optically

Integrating multi‐decadal satellite imagery and species distribution models for conservation planning in oak woodlands

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Oak woodlands are among California's least protected yet most ecologically important ecosystems, providing critical habitat for a wide variety of plant and animal species. These foundational plant communities are increasingly threatened by drought, wildfire, and other climate‐driven disturbances, which have contributed to significant declines ...

Long‐term trends in greenness in the alpine zone of northeastern North America from remote sensing

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Alpine zones above treeline in the Appalachian Mountains and adjacent ranges of northeastern North America support distinctive ecological communities that thrive where conditions are too harsh for trees to grow. These communities differ from alpine zones elsewhere on the continent and are a regionally important source of floristic biodiversity,
