To Which Extent the Surface Water Ocean Topography (SWOT) Mission Is Currently Able to Monitor Water Surface Elevation and Extent on the French Lakes?

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract This study (July 2023–December 2025) assesses the SWOT satellite's ability to measure water surface elevation (WSE) and surface water extent (SWE) over diverse French lakes. WSE estimates from SWOT were compared to in situ gauge data and conventional radar altimetry, while SWE was evaluated using the Global Water Watch (GWW) database.

The Shrinking Caspian Sea: Eco‐Hydrological Responses to Human and Climate Pressures

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The Caspian Sea, the Earth's largest inland water body, faces water level decline, drawing comparisons to the collapse of the Aral Sea. Unlike the Aral Sea, the relative roles of climatic variability, hydrological changes, and anthropogenic pressures on the Caspian Sea remain poorly understood.

Performance Evaluation of Automated Flood Inundation Mapping Techniques Using Multi‐Temporal Sentinel‐1 SAR Data

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent times, the development of algorithms to delineate water surface maps has significantly boosted flood monitoring and mitigation efforts by utilizing dual polarization, multi‐temporal Sentinel‐1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. The Sentinel‐1 mission, with its global land monitoring capability, has been widely employed for SAR ...

Assessing Ecological Connectivity for Loxodonta africana Across Transfrontier Conservation Areas in Southern Mozambique

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We present the first spatially explicit assessment of ecological connectivity for African bush elephant (Loxodonta africana) in southern Mozambique, spanning the Great Limpopo and Lubombo Transfrontier Conservation Areas. By integrating Resource Selection Function with landscape connectivity analysis, we provide spatially explicit prioritization of ...

Network‐wide assessment of soil water content calibration and sensitivity to biomass proxies using cosmic‐ray neutron sensing in the Roaring Fork Basin, Colorado

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Soil water content (SWC) is a key state variable of the climate system but is often uncertain in water balance monitoring, especially in alpine environments. SWC measurements can be challenging in alpine environments due to the topography and rocky soils.

Precision Estimation of Crop Coefficient for Maize Cultivation Using High-Resolution Satellite Imagery to Enhance Evapotranspiration Assessment in Agriculture

Plants
The estimation of crop evapotranspiration (ETc) is crucial for irrigation water management, especially in arid regions. This can be particularly relevant in the Po Valley (Italy), where arable lands suffer from drought damages on an annual basis, causing
