Satellite‐Derived Productivity Outputs for Land Degradation Assessment Vary With Biome and Rainfall
Land Degradation &Development, Volume 36, Issue 9, Page 2913-2927, 30 May 2025.ABSTRACT Estimates of the extent of land degradation vary dramatically. To quantify the extent and location of land degradation globally, the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) asks member countries to report on land degradation every four years, providing crucial baseline and change data.

SWAT use of gridded observations for simulating runoff – a Vietnam river basin study [PDF]
, 2011 Many research studies that focus on basin hydrology have applied the SWAT model using station data to simulate runoff. But over regions lacking robust station data, there is a problem of applying the model to study the hydrological responses.
