Bias Correction of ERA5 Temperature Across Five Topoclimatic Clusters: A Comparative Evaluation of Four Methods

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
ERA5 near‐surface temperature over South America exhibits systematic cold biases in daily maximum temperature and warm biases in daily minimum temperature. To address the continent's strong climatic and topographic heterogeneity, South America was partitioned into five topoclimatic clusters, and four bias‐correction approaches were evaluated. The Multi‐

Decoupling glacier retreat and surface stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (Slovenia), insights from in situ cosmogenic 36Cl exposure and depth‐profile ages

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...

Assessing plant water status: Part 2 – Non‐destructive and remote sensing approaches

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Precise, real time and non‐destructive assessment of plant water status is important for advancing plant physiological understanding, optimizing water usage, improving crop resilience and supporting precision agriculture in the face of increasingly variable climatic conditions.

Performance of Snow Ablation Optimization for Solving Optimum Allocation of Generator Units

IEEE Access
The snow ablation optimization (SAO) is a new metaheuristic motivated by the melting and sublimation properties of snow. In this work, the economic load dispatch (ELD) problem, one of the key components of a power system, is solved using the SAO.

Mapping landowners' willingness to allow recreational deer harvest on their property for managing chronic wasting disease

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We demonstrate an approach for mapping the probability of landowners' willingness to allow wildlife management actions on their property using chronic wasting disease as a case study. Larger property sizes were associated with higher landowner willingness. We mapped predictions across the contiguous United States at the census tract level.

Integration of Strong Fluctuation Theory With Rough Soil Models for Improving Snow Backscattering Simulations

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing
In this work, we proposed a reappraisal of strong fluctuation theory (SFT) aimed at improving its capability in simulating snow backscattering. As conceived in the original form, SFT considers the air-snow and snow-soil interfaces as flat surfaces.

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 ...

Asynchronous Coupling Between China's Forest Canopy Structure and Belowground Biomass Carbon in the 21st Century

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The spatio‐temporal relationship between Forest Canopy Structure (FCS) and Belowground Biomass Carbon (BGBC) is fundamental to determining how optimizing spatial structure can maximize forest carbon‐sink potential in land management. However, the lidar data resolution over the space and time exists limitation, causing the coupling relationship
