Forest disturbance and recovery: A general review in the context of spaceborne remote sensing of impacts on aboveground biomass and canopy structure [PDF]
Abrupt forest disturbances generating gaps \u3e0.001 km2 impact roughly 0.4–0.7 million km2a−1. Fire, windstorms, logging, and shifting cultivation are dominant disturbances; minor contributors are land conversion, flooding, landslides, and avalanches ...

Abstract Sea ice is situated close to the termini of many outlet glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic and has the potential to influence their dynamics and, therefore, their contribution to sea level rise. However, the nature, prevalence, and ice‐dynamic significance of sea ice‐glacier interactions remains subject to several open questions.

Multifrequency active and passive microwave remote sensing can deliver complementary insights for surface observations. In this study, we aim to simultaneously reproduce these observations and analyze their covariations, as well as to explore the impacts

High-Resolution Mapping of Freeze/Thaw Status in China via Fusion of MODIS and AMSR2 Data
Transition of freeze/thaw (F/T) affects land-atmospheric interactions and other biospheric dynamics. Global F/T statuses are normally monitored using microwave remote sensing, but at coarse resolutions (e.g., 25 km).

Abstract Snow depth remains one of the largest sources of uncertainty in satellite‐derived sea ice thickness (SIT). Here, we introduce the novel Nadir Radiometer and Radar Synergy (NaRRS) method that combines data from Sentinel‐3's Microwave Radiometer (MWR) and Synthetic Aperture Radar Altimeter (SRAL) to retrieve Arctic snow depth on sea ice.

AMSR2 Soil Moisture Downscaling Using Temperature and Vegetation Data
Soil moisture (SM) applications in terrestrial hydrology require higher spatial resolution soil moisture products than those provided by passive microwave remote sensing instruments (grid resolution of 9 km or larger).

A First Attempt at Reconstructing FengYun‐4B Stratified Precipitable Water Using GNSS
Abstract Layer Precipitable Water (LPW) characterizes the vertical structure of atmospheric moisture and is essential for accurate weather forecasts. China's FY‐4B satellite delivers near‐real‐time LPW products, but is constrained by large uncertainties.

Investigation of passive atmospheric sounding using millimeter and submillimeter wavelength channels [PDF]
Activities within the period from July 1, 1992 through December 31, 1992 by Georgia Tech researchers in millimeter and submillimeter wavelength tropospheric remote sensing have been centered around the calibration of the Millimeter-wave Imaging ...
