Abstract Plants modify their functional traits in response to changing environmental conditions under climate change. However, it remains unclear whether tree planting alters patterns and acclimation of hydraulic traits across spatial scales. Here, we compiled a site‐level data set of hydraulic traits in natural (NF) and planted forests (PF) to examine

Abstract Floods can increase the risk of adverse health outcomes through multiple pathways, including contamination of food and water. Remotely sensed (RS) inundation extents can help identify regions with expected heightened flood‐related health risks, but variations across inundation data sets and their integration into health risk assessments may ...

Determination of low-level temperature profiles from microwave radiometer observations during rain [PDF]
Usually, microwave radiometer observations have to be discarded during rain. The radomes of the receiver antenna get wet, which hampers accurate measurements since the retrieval algorithms to derive atmospheric quantities are not trained for rain events.

Tomographic retrieval of cloud liquid water fields from a single scanning microwave radiometer aboard a moving platform – Part 1: Field trial results from the Wakasa Bay experiment [PDF]
Tomographic methods offer great potential for retrieving three-dimensional spatial distributions of cloud liquid water from radiometric observations by passive microwave sensors.

In Situ Observation of a Strong Diurnal Warming Event in the Labrador Sea Undetected by Satellites
Abstract Diurnal warming (DW) at the ocean surface occurs when there is a combination of solar heating in the absence of vertical mixing typically derived from wind stress. DW has been well described, mostly from satellite data, but also with some in situ observations.

Monitoring contamination level on insulator materials under dry condition with a microwave reflectometer [PDF]
Current techniques used for monitoring the levels of contamination on high voltage insulators, such as leakage current and infrared, are not effective in dry conditions since they require the surface of the insulator to be wetted by fog, rain or snow. If

Simulating Passive Microwave Radiometer Designs Using Simulink [PDF]
The authors have developed a simulation system for a passive microwave radiometer using MATLAB and SIMULINK from The MathWorks, Inc. The system comprises a high-level block diagram simulation for a modern instrument, the Scanning Low Frequency Microwave Radiometer, or SLFMR. The hardware prototype SLFMR, which was designed to map sea surface salinity,

Abstract While aspects such as the temperature and composition of the Martian atmosphere are relatively well known thanks to observations from numerous space missions, Martian atmospheric dynamics remain poorly constrained due to the scarcity of direct wind measurements. The use of microwave limb sounders to retrieve winds has been proposed in the past,
