Digital mapping of soil erodibility: A case study of the Ravang watershed, southern Iran

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract The Universal Soil Loss Equation incorporates soil erodibility as a key parameter for erosion quantification. This study focused on mapping soil erodibility patterns and identifying the primary factors influencing its spatial distribution within the Ravang watershed, located in southern Iran's Hormozgan Province.

A Multimethod Analysis for Average Annual Precipitation Mapping in the Khorasan Razavi Province (Northeastern Iran)

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
The spatial distribution of precipitation is one of the most important climatic variables used in geographic and environmental studies. However, when there is a lack of full coverage of meteorological stations, precipitation estimations are necessary to ...

Coherent Disaggregation and Uncertainty Quantification for Spatially Misaligned Data

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Spatial misalignment arises when datasets are aggregated or collected at different spatial scales, leading to information loss. We develop a Bayesian disaggregation framework that links misaligned data to a continuous‐domain model through an iteratively linearised integration scheme implemented with the Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation (

The improvement of strain estimation using universal kriging [PDF]

open access: yesActa Geodaetica et Geophysica, 2015
In this paper, universal kriging with linear trend is used to interpolate the strain tensor elements over a region along San Andreas Fault in California. The main goal of this paper is to improve the ordinary kriging interpolation results. A 7-year time series (2006–2012) of 12 permanent stations is utilized to obtain the coordinate changes in UTM ...

A Step Toward Rainfall Erosivity Mapping Over Türkiye Using Kriging With External Drift

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study maps rainfall erosivity (R factor) across Türkiye by integrating station‐based observations with satellite‐based precipitation data. The Modified Fournier Index (MFI) derived from CHIRPS was first validated against ground measurements and subsequently incorporated as auxiliary information within a kriging with external drift (KED) framework.

Cyclone‐induced mixing and stratification shape autumnal hypoxia in a temperate estuary

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Autumnal hypoxia in temperate estuaries is often overlooked due to its smaller extent, weaker intensity, and sparse observations compared to summer. However, climate variability may alter its seasonality. Using 40 yr (1984–2023) of hypoxic volume data from the Chesapeake Bay, combined with numerical simulations, we examined interannual drivers

Spatial Analysis of Carbon Monoxide Pollutant in Mashhad by Interpolation Method and Using Geographic Information System (GIS) during 2017-2018 [PDF]

open access: yesPizhūhish dar Bihdāsht-i Muḥīṭ., 2019
Background & objeftive: Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas and since it is colorless, odorless and tasteless, it often has no warning signs for people who are at risk of this pollutant.

Comparative Analysis of Selected Geostatistical Methods for Bottom Surface Modeling

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Digital bottom models are commonly used in many fields of human activity, such as navigation, harbor and offshore technologies, or environmental studies. In many cases, they are the basis for further analysis.
