Mapping River Bed Topography in Whitewater Rapids Using Bathymetric LiDAR

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 886-900, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Bathymetric LiDAR captures river topography efficiently for clear and shallow water, but for mountain rivers, whitewater rapids still pose challenges. This study proposes a novel method to enable the extraction of bottom returns specifically in turbulent whitewater sections.

Software to Support Remote Sensing of River Discharge Based on Critical Flow Theory

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 915-928, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Water resource management requires accurate observations of streamflow but standard field methods for measuring river discharge ( Q ) can be costly and hazardous for equipment and personnel. Remote sensing has become a viable alternative, but many image‐based techniques require field data for calibration, and depth and velocity can seldom be ...

Physics-Based Satellite-Derived Bathymetry (SDB) Using Landsat OLI Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The estimation of depth in optically shallow waters using satellite imagery can be efficient and cost-effective. Active sensors measure the distance traveled by an emitted laser pulse propagating through the water with high precision and accuracy if the ...

Seafloor Sediments, Morphologic Features, and Geotechnical Properties of Harrison Bay in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Sediments on Arctic continental shelves are impacted by sea ice and ice‐related processes for up to 9 months per year. As a result, seabed morphology in cold regions can exhibit features such as ice scours which are absent on lower‐latitude shelves.

Study of the time evolution of the lithosphere [PDF]

open access: yes
The behavior and mechanical properties of the lithosphere were studied. This is a prerequisite to an understanding of the mechanisms and processes that occur in the Earth's mantle, which are masked by the lithospere. Geoid heights derived from the GEOS-3

Uncertainty Modeling for AUV Acquired Bathymetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are used across a wide range of mission scenarios and from an increasingly diverse set of operators. Use of AUVs for shallow water (less than 200 meters) mapping applications is of increasing interest.

A new approach to satellite-derived bathymetry: the use of NDWI and ANN with bathymetry sections for reservoir mapping

open access: yesBoletim de Ciências Geodésicas
Abstract: Mapping the submerged bottom is a hampered task when traditional vessels are inserted in shallow places that pose a danger to navigation. In this sense, current research has sought optical remote sensing to obtain bathymetry estimates in larger locations in less time.

Fusing Multi‐ and Hyperspectral Satellite Data for Harmful Algal Bloom Monitoring With Self‐Supervised and Hierarchical Deep Learning

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We present a self‐supervised machine learning framework for detecting and mapping the severity and speciation of harmful algal blooms (HABs) using multi‐sensor satellite data. By fusing reflectance data from operational polar‐orbiting satellite‐based instruments (VIIRS, MODIS, OLCI, and OCI) with TROPOMI solar‐induced fluorescence (SIF), our ...

Latitude Dictates Global Marine Diatom Dynamics: Insights From 25 years of Satellite Data

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Marine diatoms are key players in global biogeochemical cycles, yet their spatiotemporal dynamics and the underlying drivers remain poorly understood. Here, we developed a novel remote sensing model and utilized 25 years of global satellite data to investigate marine diatom biomass.
