The first openly accessible 2 m‐resolution lidar‐based DTM and an extensive set of land‐surface parameters (LSPs) for the region of São Sebastião and Ilhabela, southeastern Brazil, reveal geomorphological features previously indiscernible, including past landslide deposits, drainage captures and structural lineaments.

Loss of forest cover and derived effects on forest ecosystems services has led to the establishment of land management policies and forest monitoring systems, and consequently to the demand for accurate and multitemporal data on forest extent and ...

Abstract We investigate the 1D reflectance distribution of shallow cumulus as a function of cloud size, using high‐spatial‐resolution observations from the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER). Reflectance transects through clouds are compared between Inner Mongolia and Tropical Ocean.

Chlorophyll and POC in polar regions derived from spaceborne lidar
Polar regions have the most productive ecosystems in the global ocean but are vulnerable to global climate changes. Traditionally, the long-term changes occurred in an ecosystem are studied by using satellite-derived estimates of passive ocean color ...

Abstract Cloud radiative effects (CREs) play a critical role in Earth's energy balance and climate variability, yet the variability and specific contributions of distinct cloud types remain poorly understood. Using the Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System FluxByCldTyp data set, this study investigates how temporal variations in total top‐of‐the‐

Abstract The vertical structure of relative humidity within cirrus clouds in the upper troposphere remained unexplored, owing to measurement challenges. Twelve years of balloon‐borne simultaneous measurements of upper tropospheric humidity and optical particle backscatter during the Asian summer monsoon are used to consolidate our understanding of ...
