Mesonet‐Based Ground Validation of IMERG‐V07 and GSMaP‐V08 Over a Semi‐Arid Dryland Ecosystem in West Texas

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Climate change has caused highly uncertain precipitation regimes and associated hydrometeorological hazards over global drylands. Accurate precipitation measurements are vital for monitoring dryland ecohydrology. Satellite precipitation products (SPPs), including the Integrated Multi‐satellitE Retrievals for GPM (Global Precipitation ...

Satellite‐Observed Hourly Chlorophyll Variability Associated With Solar Radiation in China's Marginal Seas

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Understanding sub‐daily variability in phytoplankton proxies is essential for interpreting satellite estimates of ocean productivity in marginal seas. Using high‐frequency observations from the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI), we assess daytime (08:00–15:00 local time) hourly surface chlorophyll‐a (Chla) variability across China's ...

An Object Similarity-Based Thresholding Method for Urban Area Mapping from Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite Day/Night Band (VIIRS DNB) Data [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2018
Nighttime light data from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Day/Night Band (DNB) provides a unique data source for mapping and monitoring urban areas at regional and global scales. This study proposes an object similarity-based thresholding method using VIIRS DNB data to map urban areas.

Wildfire size, severity and timing vary with dominant vegetation in open landscapes in England and Wales

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
We combined field research and satellite data to learn more about wildfire regimes in England and Wales. Our results show significant variation in fire size, severity, and timing between areas dominated by different vegetation types. Abstract Wildfires are an increasing concern worldwide, as climate change extends periods with the necessary conditions ...

Daily Global Methane Super‐Emitter Detection and Source Identification With Sub‐Daily Tracking

Geophysical Research Letters
We use the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) satellite instruments to retrieve atmospheric methane enhancements with 750 m resolution. We show that the three VIIRS instruments in orbit uniquely enhance tracking of methane super‐emission ...
