Eastern North American Liana Distributions Reveal Conservation and Climate Mitigation Potential

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim We created the first high‐resolution distribution maps for lianas at a continental scale to address critical knowledge gaps in invasive species management, forest carbon storage, and temperate forest ecology. Location The Nearctic realm and Eastern North America. Methods We developed a cascading modelling approach using Google Earth Engine

Drought severity estimation using NDWI index in Parbhani district of Maharashtra

Journal of Agrometeorology
The study was carried out to investigate the impact of drought on vegetation in Maharashtra's Parbhani district, utilizing remote sensing techniques. Analysis of Landsat 8 data for 2015 (a drought year) and 2020 (a normal year) reveals fluctuations in the Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) closely correlated with rainfall patterns.

Monitoring 2015 drought in West Java using Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI)

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2018
Drought is a slow developing phenomenon that accumulates over period and affecting various sectors. It is one of natural hazards that occurs each year, particularly in Indonesia over Australian Monsoon period. During drought event, vegetation's cover can be affected by water stress.

Characterizing Landslide‐Induced Floods Using the SWOT Mission: A Case Study on the Chilcotin River, Canada

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Monitoring small rivers during extreme events is challenging, especially in remote areas. This study assesses the accuracy of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission in characterizing an extreme hydrological event on a narrow river (∼60 m wide), using a landslide‐induced flood on the Chilcotin River (Canada) as a case study.

An investigation on seasonal variability between LST and NDWI in an urban environment using Landsat satellite data

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2020
The urban landscape is considered the most complex and heterogeneous landscape among the different land surface features. It rises the land surface temperature (LST) to a large extent compared to the surrounding rural body.
