A 2D processing algorithm for detecting landmines using Ground Penetrating Radar data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Ground Penetrating Radar(GPR) is one of a number of technologies that have been used to improve landmine detection efficiency. The clutter environment within the first few cm of the soil where landmines are buried, exhibits strong reflections with ...

Deciphering Freeze–Thaw Dynamics In Rockwalls: A Novel Approach for High Accuracy Regional‐Scale Modeling

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using a large and novel array of instruments on five rockwalls in northern Gaspesia, their respective surface energy balances were calculated and their thermal regimes were measured and modeled to depths exceeding the seasonal frost penetration.

An urban classification approach based on an object-oriented analysis of high resolution satellite imagery for a spatial structuring within urban areas

open access: yes, 2006
Classifying the complex structures of urban morphology from high resolution remote sensing imagery comprises difficulties due to their spectral and spatial heterogeneity.

Capturing the Multi‐Decadal Evolution of Glacier–Permafrost Interactions in a High‐Alpine Environment (Ritord, Western Swiss Alps)

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the multi‐decadal evolution of a glacier forefield under permafrost conditions in the Combins Massif (western Swiss Alps). A multi‐method approach based on historical and recent datasets is used to analyze its landform components.

Observations of snowpack properties to evaluate ground-based microwave remote sensing

open access: yes, 2010
Active microwave radar has been shown to have great potential for estimating snow water equivalent (SWE) globally from space. To help evaluate optimal active microwave sensor configurations to observe SWE, we evaluated ground-based Frequency Modulated ...

“Cold Tropics”: Permafrost Existence and Thickness on Eastern Nevado Coropuna (Southern Peruvian Andes) Revealed by Ground‐Penetrating Radar and Geoelectrical Soundings

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The existence of permafrost was explored at tropical latitude on Nevado Coropuna (southern Peruvian Andes) using a combination of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and vertical electrical sounding (VES) in order to strengthen the mutual validation of data processing and interpretation.

Vegetation, topography and snow melt at the Forest-Tundra Ecotone in arctic Europe: a study using synthetic aperture radar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This research was conducted as part of DART (Dynamic Response of the Forest-Tundra Ecotone to Environmental Change), a four year (1998-2002) European Commission funded international programme of research addressing the potential dynamic response of the ...

NowPrecip 2: Precipitation nowcasting in the complex terrain of Switzerland. Part I: Methods

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
In this work we present the methods of the areal precipitation nowcasting system NowPrecip version 2. In this version a new methodology is introduced, which, although it shares philosophy and techniques with the original methodology of NowPrecip version 1, can be considered as distinct from that.
