Increasing artificial light at night enhances salmonid predator foraging efficiency in an urbanized lake

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Artificial light at night (ALAN) poses a threat to ecosystems globally. It includes both direct and indirect light, or skyglow, which occurs when ALAN scatters in the atmosphere, extending beyond its original source. We analyzed ALAN trends in Lake Washington, WA, from 2014 to 2023 using Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS ...

Automatic optical depth parametrization in radiative transfer model RTTOV v13 via LASSO-induced sparsity [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development
The assimilation of satellite spectral sounder data requires fast and accurate radiative transfer models. This study proposes a novel methodology to automatically parameterize atmospheric optical depths within the Radiative Transfer for TOVS (RTTOV ...

Land Surface Temperature product validation using NOAA's surface climate observation networks—Scaling methodology for the Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS)

open access: yesRemote Sensing of Environment, 2012
Abstract NOAA will soon use the new Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) as its primary polar-orbiting satellite imager. Employing a near real-time processing system, NOAA will generate a series of Environmental Data Records (EDRs) from VIIRS data. For example, the VIIRS Land Surface Temperature (

Median Shift Lunar Correction for VIIRS

open access: yes, 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.

Remote Sensing During the 2025 Los Angeles Wildfires

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 5, August 2026.
Abstract The January 2025 Los Angeles County wildfires burned more than 50,000 acres, destroyed more than 16,000 structures, and caused 31 deaths. This Commentary examines how NASA's Disasters Program coordinated with response organizations to deliver 22 satellite and airborne products during the fires, even as the Eaton Fire forced the Jet Propulsion ...

Localization and Classification of Gravity Wave Events From VIIRS Day/Night Band Satellite Imagery Using Machine Learning Techniques

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Gravity waves in the upper mesosphere produce diverse spatial patterns in nighttime airglow, but their global morphology has been difficult to characterize because manual identification is impractical for the massive satellite image archive. We developed a machine learning framework to detect and classify gravity wave events in imagery from ...

Implementation of the Deep Blue Aerosol Algorithm on Geostationary Satellite Data

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Deep Blue (DB) aerosol project aims to produce consistent, long‐term climate data records of atmospheric aerosol properties using satellite observations. The DB algorithm has been extensively applied to low Earth orbit (LEO) sensors, including the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer and
