Explainable, Uncertainty‐Aware Machine Learning for Maize Land Suitability and Climate Resilience in Lorestan Province, Western Iran

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) is strategically important in Iran, yet its cultivation in the semi‐arid Zagros is constrained by limited and variable water, heat stress and heterogeneous soils, while conventional suitability assessments are deterministic, rarely validated spatially and provide no measure of confidence.

Trends in vegetation productivity and seasonality for Namaqualand, South Africa between 1986 and 2011: an approach combining remote sensing and repeat photography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis presents an assessment of vegetation change and its drivers across a subset of Namaqualand, South Africa. Namaqualand forms part of the Succulent Karoo biome, which is characterised by exceptionally high species biodiversity but which has ...

UV-NDVI for real-time crop health monitoring in vertical farms

open access: yesSmart Agricultural Technology
This study aims to develop a plant health monitoring system suitable for vertical farms. It began by creating a multispectral LED with UVA and NIR light sources and an IoT device capable of controlling the LED spectrum. The IoT device integrates a camera

Balancing Productivity, Ecology, and Social Well‐Being: Insights From Three Decades of Farmland Transformation in China

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Balancing food security, social equity, and ecological sustainability remains a persistent challenge in global agricultural systems. While economic and ecological aspects of land‐use transitions have been extensively studied, the long‐term dynamics of social functions and their interactions with other functions are less understood.

Research on the Simulation of NDVI Dynamic Monitoring Based on Temporal GIS

open access: yesShuitu baochi yanjiu, 2006
NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index)was taken as a factor to monitor the vegetation by compared with the difference of NDVI in short time.At the same time,the dynamic evolvement model was built to adopt the short time vegetation monitoring ...

Characterising fine‐scale habitat associations for range expanding species with limited data: a case study on the West Nile Virus vector, Culex modestus

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The ecological and epidemiological consequences of species expanding into new areas are growing concomitantly with climate change. Those aiming to monitor species expanding in range must make optimal use of finite resources to deliver effective surveillance capable of detecting new incursions and range expansions.

Examination of the Relationship Between Surface Temperature and Spectral Land Cover Indices for Different Köppen Climate Classes [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Land Surface Temperature (LST) serves as a critical parameter for evaluating urban climate dynamics and surface energy exchanges. This study examines the relationships between LST and four spectral land cover indices—Normalized Difference ...

Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) as a tool for the evaluation of agricultural drought

open access: yes, 2018
The paper deals with the evaluation of agricultural drought in Slovakia by remote sensing data. For this purpose, monthly normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) values were derived from MODIS spectroradiometer at district level during the time period of 2000 to 2014.

Green pathways to mental health: Relationships between treescapes and well‐being and distress

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract We aimed to evaluate the mental health benefits and possible mechanisms of objective and subjective treescape exposures whilst also accounting for relationships with residential area greenspace in general. Independent variables were objective measures of residential neighbourhood tree cover density and woody linear features, and a subjective ...
