Downscaling spatial interaction with socioeconomic attributes
A variety of complex socioeconomic phenomena, for example, migration, commuting, and trade can be abstracted by spatial interaction networks, where nodes represent geographic locations and weighted edges convey the interaction and its strength.

A spectral method for spatial downscaling. [PDF]
SummaryComplex computer models play a crucial role in air quality research. These models are used to evaluate potential regulatory impacts of emission control strategies and to estimate air quality in areas without monitoring data. For both of these purposes, it is important to calibrate model output with monitoring data to adjust for model biases and ...

Spatial downscaling of multivariate disease risk. [PDF]
Abstract Downscaling areal health data to a finer resolution is important for understanding the intricate spatial patterns of disease. It helps to identify shared risk factors and to develop targeted public health interventions. This paper introduces Area-to-Area (ATA) and Area-to-Point (ATP) Poisson cokriging for downscaling spatial disease ...

Spatial Downscaling of Alien Species Presences Using Machine Learning [PDF]
Spatially explicit assessments of alien species environmental and socio-economic impacts, and subsequent management interventions for their mitigation, require large scale, high-resolution data on species presence distribution.

Blocks-removed spatial unmixing for downscaling MODIS images [PDF]
Abstract The Terra/Aqua MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data have been used widely for global monitoring of the Earth's surface due to their daily fine temporal resolution. The spatial resolution of MODIS time-series (i.e., 500 m), however, is too coarse for local monitoring.

Downscaling species occupancy from coarse spatial scales [PDF]
The measurement and prediction of species' populations at different spatial scales is crucial to spatial ecology as well as conservation biology. An efficient yet challenging goal to achieve such population estimates consists of recording empirical species' presence and absence at a specific regional scale and then trying to predict occupancies at ...

Residential electricity demand projections for Italy: A spatial downscaling approach [PDF]
This work projects future residential electricity demand in Italy at the local (1 km grid) level based on population, land use, socio-economic and climate scenarios for the year 2050. A two-step approach is employed. In the first step, a grid-level model is estimated to explain land use as a function of socio-economic and demographic variables.

Evaluation of soil moisture downscaling using a simple thermal-based proxy – the REMEDHUS network (Spain) example [PDF]
Soil moisture retrieved from satellite microwave remote sensing normally has spatial resolution on the order of tens of kilometers, which are too coarse for many regional hydrological applications such as agriculture monitoring and drought prediction ...
