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 ...

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 ...

Improving Digital Mapping of Soil Organic Carbon and Total Nitrogen Through Integration of Sentinel‐1 Backscatter, InSAR Coherence, and Sentinel‐3 OLCI/SLSTR Observations

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The potential of optical satellites for the spatial prediction of soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (STN) has long been recognized. Owing to their balanced spatial–temporal resolution, multisource observational capabilities, and unprecedented availability of free data, Sentinel satellites offer unique opportunities for mapping soil ...

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,

Effects of timed LED regimes on tomato plant traits, performance of two‐spotted spider mites, and predatory mites (Phytoseiulus persimilis)

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2300-2311, April 2025.
Light‐emitting diode (LED)‐based treatments for enhancing crop production and pest management have primarily focused on continuous treatments. This study, using Tetranychus urticae and Phytoseiulus persimilis, demonstrates that the timing of LED supplementation is crucial for designing integrated pest management strategies that improve both plant ...

Estimation of All-Sky Gridded Diurnal Near-Surface Air Temperatures at Regional Scale From FY-4B Measurements

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The near-surface air temperature (${{T}_{air}}$) is a principal variable describing energy exchange and water circulation between the land surface and the atmospheric environment. The estimation of ${{T}_{air}}$ by satellite land surface temperature (LST)
