Unmanned Aerial Systems for Corrosion Detection: Multi‐Sensor Technologies, Challenges, and Opportunities for Next‐Generation Inspection

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 3565-3583, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Corrosion remains a critical threat to the integrity and service life of infrastructure in industries such as oil, gas, construction, renewable energy, and transportation. Traditional inspection methods, being labor‐intensive, hazardous, and often subjective, fall short in addressing modern inspection demands.

Floods From Space: How Remote Sensing, AI, and Cloud Platforms Are Reshaping Disaster Risk Reduction

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most damaging climate‐related hazards globally, yet flood remote sensing has historically developed largely along sensor‐specific pathways. This review addresses the need for a systematic and decision‐oriented synthesis of how space‐borne remote sensing has evolved toward integrated flood monitoring and disaster ...

BIOGEOCHEMISTRY OF THE BROOKLYN GRANGE, AN URBAN ROOFTOP FARM

, 2018
Intensive agriculture is an emerging theme of green roof technology, aiming to provide fresh and affordable vegetables for local consumption. The intensification of water and N management is likely to increase the discharge volume and N load to sewers, and atmospheric deposition of heavy metals could compromise food safety.
