Algorithm science to operations for the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS) Visible/Infrared Imager/Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) [PDF]
Proceedings. 2005 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2005. IGARSS '05., 2005 The VIIRS sensor provides measurements for 22 environmental data records (EDRs) addressing the atmosphere, ocean surface temperature, ocean color, land parameters, aerosols, imaging for clouds and ice, and more. That is, the VIIRS collects visible and infrared radiometric data of the Earth's atmosphere, ocean, and land surfaces.

Remote Sensing, 2022 (1) Background: Fire affects global agricultural and/or forest ecosystems with high biomass accumulation. However, the delineation of fire-hazardous areas based on satellite-derived active fire intensity is not well-studied. Therefore, examining the characteristics of fire occurrence and development plays an important role in zoning fire-hazardous ...

A Test of the New VIIRS Lights Data Set: Population and Economic Output in Africa
Remote Sensing, 2015 The present study analyses the new Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) lights data to determine whether it can provide more accurate proxies for socioeconomic data in areas with poor quality data than proxies based on stable lights.

Ice Surface Temperature Retrieval from a Single Satellite Imager Band
Remote Sensing, 2018 Current methods for estimating the surface temperature of sea and lake ice—the ice surface temperature (IST)—utilize two satellite imager thermal bands (11 and 12 μm) at moderate spatial resolution.

Ibis, EarlyView.Anthropogenic factors such as artificial lighting at night (ALAN) and natural factors including temperature and moonlight can affect the dawn chorus pattern in birds. However, most studies are conducted in temperate regions. We investigated the effect of anthropogenic and natural factors on dawn chorus timing in eight species of bird across Hong Kong ...

Russia's Wartime Economy: Measuring Regional Inequalities From Outer Space
Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study Russia's February 2022 full‐scale invasion of Ukraine as a natural experiment to determine how sudden disruptions to international market access reshape sub‐national economic inequalities. Using remotely‐sensed nighttime lights as a proxy for economic activity, we estimate the economic effects of the war at the national and regional ...
