Impact of Spatial Scale on Optical Earth Observation‐Derived Seasonal Surface Water Extents

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Landsat‐derived products are the most prominent, publicly available sources of large‐scale surface water extent data. However, few studies have assessed the limitations of spatial scale on such products. Here, we mapped seasonal surface water extents utilizing high‐resolution (4.77 m) PlanetScope Basemap imagery and machine learning.

Dusty Streets: The Challenge of Dust‐Borne Pollutants in Low‐Income Countries

open access: yesCLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 2, February 2026.
Generally, pollution impacts developed and low‐income countries (LICs) to different extents, and the disease burden due to roadway dust is not uniformly distributed across socio‐economic classes. Roadway dust materials from paved and unpaved urban and rural roads were reported to contain organic constituents which are toxic and affect public health ...

Urbanization and Spatial Aggregation Impair Multifunctionality in Urban Vacant Lots

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study provides the first assessment of biodiversity and ecosystem multifunctionality in urban vacant lots. Although urbanization and spatial aggregation of vacant lots impaired multifunctionality, soil moisture improved it. ABSTRACT Urban shrinkage, driven by population decline rather than expansion, is an emerging concern in many developed ...
