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.

Evaluation of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Cloud Base Height (CBH) Pixel-level Retrieval Algorithm for Single-layer Water Clouds [PDF]
, 2016 Evaluation of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Cloud Base Height (CBH) product was accomplished. CBH is an important factor for aviation, but a lack of coverage for ground-based retrieval is a significant limitation.

Median Shift Lunar Correction for VIIRS
, 2021 Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) 24-h data are substantially affected by lunar illumination. A new method is proposed to correct this distortion and be able to form a consistent time series.

Playing with fire: Wolf response to active wildfires, fire fronts and smoke
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study is one of the first, to our knowledge, to explicitly examine fine‐scale behavioural responses of a large carnivore to actively burning wildfires, fire fronts and smoke. The study found that wolves balanced the potential risks and benefits associated with wildfires, with implications for predator–prey dynamics in fire‐prone regions.
