Insights into Red Deer Ecology during the Late Epigravettian: New isotopic evidence from Riparo Tagliente (Italian Prealps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Late Glacial marked a shift from the cold conditions of Greenland Stadial‐2 (GS‐2) to the warmer phases of Greenland Interstadial‐1 (GI‐1), enabling the reoccupation of Alpine regions by Late Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers.

Surface Properties of Global Land Surface Microwave Emissivity Derived from FY-3D/MWRI Measurements

Sensors, 2023
Land surface microwave emissivity is crucial to the accurate retrieval of surface and atmospheric parameters and the assimilation of microwave data into numerical models over land. The microwave radiation imager (MWRI) sensors aboard on Chinese FengYun-3

Coal Mining as a Driver of Land Use and Land Cover Change and Degradation: A Case in Moatize City, Mozambique

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coal remains a major global energy source despite ongoing environmental controversies, particularly, regarding climate change and landscape transformation. This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in the Moatize Coal Basin (MCB), Mozambique, between 1990 and 2024, with a specific focus on land ...

Estimation of Maximum Hail Diameters from FY-4A Satellite Data with a Machine Learning Method

Remote Sensing, 2021
The magnitude of damage caused by hail depends on its size; however, direct observation or indirect estimation of hail size remains a significant challenge.

Uncertainty assessment for a novel optically shallow water radiometric acquisition platform

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a novel motorized platform, a custom‐built jet‐ski designed for acoustic and radiometric measurements in optically shallow coastal waters. This platform integrates in‐water radiometers with single‐beam and multi‐beam acoustic sensors, along with a suite of active and passive instruments (conductivity‐temperature‐depth, fluorescence,

Reconstruction of Fine-Spatial-Resolution FY-3D-Based Vegetation Indices to Achieve Farmland-Scale Winter Wheat Yield Estimation via Fusion with Sentinel-2 Data

Remote Sensing
The spatial resolution (250–1000 m) of the FY-3D MERSI is too coarse for agricultural monitoring at the farmland scale (20–30 m). To achieve the winter wheat yield (WWY) at the farmland scale, based on FY-3D, a method framework is developed in this work.

The missing woodland story: Implications of 1700 years of stand‐scale change on ‘naturalness’ and managing remnant broadleaved woodlands

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Longer‐term perspectives—equivalent to the lifespans of long‐lived trees—are required to fully inform perceptions of ‘naturalness’ used in woodland conservation and management. Stand‐scale dynamics of an old growth temperate woodland are reconstructed using palaeoecological data.

A Database of High-Resolution Meteorological Drought Comprehensive Index Across China for the 1951–2022 Period

Data
Drought events exacerbated by global climate change occur frequently in China. Currently, high-spatiotemporal-resolution gridded meteorological drought index datasets are generally available for single time scales (e.g., 30, 60, 90, and 150 days) and do ...

High-Resolution Fengyun-4 Satellite Measurements of Dynamical Tropopause Structure and Variability

Remote Sensing, 2020
The dynamical tropopause is the interface between the stratosphere and the troposphere, whose variation gives indication of weather and climate changes.
