Assessing Uncertainty in LULC Classification Accuracy by Using Bootstrap Resampling [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2016 Supervised land-use/land-cover (LULC) classifications are typically conducted using class assignment rules derived from a set of multiclass training samples. Consequently, classification accuracy varies with the training data set and is thus associated with uncertainty. In this study, we propose a bootstrap resampling and reclassification approach that

Performance Evaluation of the MPAS Model in Simulating Southeast Asian Rainfall Characteristics
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study evaluates the performance of the Model for Prediction Across Scales–Atmosphere (MPAS) in reproducing key rainfall characteristics over Southeast Asia (SEA) during 2000–2020, using the MSWEP dataset as reference. MPAS realistically captures the observed meridional rainfall gradient, with higher rainfall in the south and lower in the north, as

GIS-based delineation of local climate zones: The case of medium-sized Central European cities
Moravian Geographical Reports, 2016 Stewart and Oke (2012) recently proposed the concept of Local Climate Zones (LCZ) to describe the siting of urban meteorological stations and to improve the presentation of results amongst researchers. There is now a concerted effort, however, within the

Precision Restoration to Minimize Soil Loss in a Watershed in the Atlantic Forest Domain
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Turvo River Watershed, located in the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais and part of the Doce River Basin, faces serious problems of erosion and soil degradation, which compromise and reduce the quality of local water resources. Given this scenario, it is essential to implement environmental recovery strategies that prioritize the ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Coal remains a major global energy source despite ongoing environmental controversies, particularly, regarding climate change and landscape transformation. This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in the Moatize Coal Basin (MCB), Mozambique, between 1990 and 2024, with a specific focus on land ...

UCanWBGT: urban street canyon heat stress calculation for weather and climate models
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.This work introduces UCanWBGT, a new model to calculate wet‐bulb globe temperature in an urban environment, suitable for use with weather and climate model data. We present the model, then verify its performance against observations made in the streets of Paris during heatwave conditions.

Comparison of daily and sub-daily SWAT models for daily streamflow simulation in the Upper Huai River Basin of China [PDF]
, 2015 Despite the significant role of precipitation in the hydrological cycle, few studies have been conducted to evaluate the impacts of the temporal resolution of rainfall inputs on the performance of SWAT (soil and water assessment tool) models in large ...
