The Scattering Properties of Natural Terrestrial Snows versus Icy Satellite Surfaces [PDF]
Icarus, 1997 Our comparisons of the single particle scattering behavior of terrestrial snows and icy satellite regoliths to the laboratory particle scattering measurements of McGuire and Hapke demonstrate that the differences between icy satellite regoliths and their terrestrial counterparts are due to particle structures and textures.

Europe’s land take and the loss of nature and cropland to artificial surfaces [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe expansion of artificial surfaces, also known as land take, is a major contributor to habitat loss and biodiversity decline. Using high-resolution satellite data, we find that between 2018 and 2023 Europe lost 912 ± 74 km2 yr−1 of natural and semi ...

Estimating 2010–2015 anthropogenic and natural methane emissions in Canada using ECCC surface and GOSAT satellite observations [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021 Abstract. Methane emissions in Canada have both anthropogenic and natural sources. Anthropogenic emissions are estimated to be 4.1 Tg a−1 from 2010–2015 in the National Inventory Report submitted to the United Nation's Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

THE CONTRIBUTION OF RADAR REMOTE SENSING VIA SENTINEL-1 DATA AND PHOTO-INTERPRETATION BY GOOGLE EARTH IMAGES FOR WETLAND MAPPING [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022 Wetlands are considered as sensitive ecosystems exposed and threatened by climate change and the urbanization of natural environments. In the purpose of managing these sensitive areas and conservatizing their biodiversity, remote sensing is an efficient ...

Detection of water surface natural objects based on the satellite sensing data
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021 Abstract The article shows an application of satellite sensing data method in geoenvironmental monitoring of water surface. It is expected to apply combination of LBP and neural network approaches for detection and identification objects of natural and anthropogenic origin.

Satellite detection of natural films on the ocean surface [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 1996 Natural films on the ocean surface influence air‐sea fluxes of momentum, heat and gas. It is therefore essential to be able to map the geographical extent and variability of such films to determine the resulting impact on the earth's climate system.

Natural Time Analysis of Global Navigation Satellite System Surface Deformation: The Case of the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquakes [PDF]
Entropy, 2020 In order to have further evidence of the atmospheric oscillation channel of the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere coupling (LAIC), we have studied criticality in global navigation satellite system (GNSS) surface deformation as a possible agent for exciting atmospheric gravity waves (AGWs) in the atmosphere and GNSS fluctuations in the frequency range ...

Overview: Integrative and Comprehensive Understanding on Polar Environments (iCUPE) – concept and initial results [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020 The role of polar regions is increasing in terms of megatrends such as globalization, new transport routes, demography, and the use of natural resources with consequent effects on regional and transported pollutant concentrations.

Impact Rates in the Outer Solar System
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 Previous studies of cometary impacts in the outer solar system used the spatial distribution of ecliptic comets (ECs) from dynamical models that assumed ECs began on low-inclination orbits (≲5°) in the Kuiper Belt.
