Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

The underappreciated roles of fog and dew on vegetation and biocrusts
Summary Fog and dew represent minor components of ecosystem water budgets in most ecosystems. However, fog and dew can play an essential role in ecosystem dynamics and are particularly important for water‐limited systems. In addition to serving as direct water inputs, fog and dew can influence microclimate and water redistribution, thereby promoting ...

Passive Microwave Remote Sensing of Rain from Satellite Sensors
The purpose of this chapter is to offer an accurate treatment of relevant aspects of satellite remote sensing of precipitation using passive microwave (PMW) radiometers. Microwave observations of the Earth’s system differ substantially from those based on optical and infrared wavelengths.

Abstract Surface soil moisture (SSM) is essential to the hydrological cycle and land–atmosphere interactions, and its accurate simulation is crucial for climate prediction and resource management. This study developed an innovative modeling framework for global SSM prediction by integrating physics‐guided deep learning (PGDL) and clustering‐based ...
