ABSTRACT Surface air temperature is a basic meteorological variable to monitor the environment and assess climate change. Four remote sensing methods—the temperature–vegetation index (TVX), the ...

Using aerial imagery data and LiDAR, a study remotely identified the hardest-hit areas of Southwest Florida's Estero Island in the aftermath of Hurricane Ian. Researchers estimated the extent of ...

Physicists from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology have developed a new method for wind speed remote measurements. It may complement the widely employed lidar and radar sensing techniques.

The mineral olivine, thought to be a major component inside all planetary bodies, holds secrets about the early formation of the solar system, and a team of researchers has a new way to study it ...

Satellite-based remote sensing detection of methane distribution at landfill sites. Panels a-c depict open dumpsites, while panels d-f show engineered sanitary landfills. Methane is a potent ...

Crop nutrition and quality formation are complex processes influenced by genotype, environment, and management practices. Remote sensing and proximal ...

Methane emissions from offshore oil and gas platforms can be systematically mapped using a sun-glint-based remote sensing method, researchers from the US have shown. Their new approach could help ...

The Fall Armyworm, the caterpillar stage of a moth, is a major pest in North and South America which crossed the Atlantic to West Africa in 2016 and rapidly spread across the continent. This project, ...

We propose a new method of using the public geocodes in the Demographic and Health Surveys for integrating environmental context into analysis. Currently, the public geocodes in the DHS are produced ...

Aerial remote-sensing of a large region of Mexico has revealed hundreds of ancient Mesoamerican ceremonial centers, including a large one at an important site for the ancient Olmec culture that is ...
