Securing tropical forest carbon: the contribution of protected areas to REDD [PDF]
, 2010 Forest loss and degradation in the tropics contribute 6-17% of all greenhouse gas emissions. Protected areas cover 217.2 million ha (19.6%) of the world's humid tropical forests and contain c.

Advanced InSAR atmospheric correction: MERIS/MODIS combination and stacked water vapour models [PDF]
, 2009 A major source of error for repeat-pass Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is the phase delay in radio signal propagation through the atmosphere (especially the part due to tropospheric water vapour).

Ecohydrologic Error Models for Improved Bayesian Inference in Remotely Sensed Catchments
Water Resources Research, 2019 Leaf area index (LAI) is an important vegetation indicator widely used for simulating vegetation dynamics and quantifying biomass production. Spatial and temporal variability of LAI are often characterized using satellite remote sensing products. However,

Application of DInSAR-GPS optimization for derivation of fine-scale surface motion maps of Southern California [PDF]
, 2007 A method based on random field theory and Gibbs-Markov random fields equivalency within Bayesian statistical framework is used to derive 3-D surface motion maps from sparse global positioning system (GPS) measurements and differential interferometric ...
