Characterizing Changes in Paddy Rice Flooding Time over the Sanjiang Plain Using Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer Time Series

Remote Sensing
Rice is a primary food crop, and rice production ensures food security and maintains social stability with great significance. Flooding paddy rice fields as an important step in rice production affects the entire growth process of rice.

Retrieval of Green-up Onset Date From MODIS Derived NDVI in Grasslands of Inner Mongolia

IEEE Access, 2019
In this paper, moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) derived normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) was used to retrieve the onset date of spring phenology in grasslands of Inner Mongolia from 2002 to 2017.

Satellite Data Trace Seasonal Freshwater Dispersion in Hudson and James Bays

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract Freshwater dispersal controls stratification, circulation, and biogeochemical processes in Hudson and James Bay (HJB); however, limited field observations hinder understanding of how different freshwater types drive change. This study uses Aqua‐Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer and Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity‐Microwave Imaging

Spatiotemporal dynamics of vegetation net primary productivity and its response to climate variability

Environmental Systems Research
Despite its significance, net primary productivity is rarely used as an indicator of climate change. The purpose of this study was to assess the spatiotemporal dynamics of vegetation net primary productivity and its response to climate variability in the

Improving Sandstorm Simulations by Parameterizing Form Drag From Subgrid Sand Dunes Using 30‐m‐Resolution Terrain Data

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract Surface and near‐surface wind speeds, critical factors for dust emission, are often overestimated in desert regions by models, leading to exaggerated predictions of sandstorm extent and dust concentration. This study implements a new turbulent orographic form drag (TOFD) parameterization scheme using 30‐m‐resolution terrain data in the WRF ...

Impact and Variability of Cloud Types on Earth's Top‐of‐Atmosphere Energy Balance in the Tropics: A 19‐Year Analysis of High‐Resolution CERES Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract Cloud radiative effects (CREs) play a critical role in Earth's energy balance and climate variability, yet the variability and specific contributions of distinct cloud types remain poorly understood. Using the Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System FluxByCldTyp data set, this study investigates how temporal variations in total top‐of‐the‐

Assessing Causes and Consequences of Winter Surface Water Dynamics in California's Central Valley Using Satellite Remote Sensing

Journal of Flood Risk Management
California's Central Valley is increasingly vulnerable to winter floods. A comprehensive spatial baseline of flood extents is critical for inundation analyses that can enhance future flood predictions, but cloud cover has prevented the regular ...
