Grapevine leafroll disease (GLD) is considered one of the most widespread grapevine virus diseases, causing severe economic losses worldwide. To date, six grapevine leafroll-associated viruses (GLRaVs) are known as causal agents of the disease, of wh...

The southeast coastal area of China (SCAC), a typhoon-prone area with a long coastline, suffers severe damage from typhoons almost every year. Exploring the spatial characteristics of historical typhoon-induced vegetation damage (VD) is crucial to pr...

A shipborne micro-pulse lidar (Sigma Space Mini-MPL) was used to measure aerosol extinction coefficient over the northern region of the South China Sea from 9 August to 7 September 2016, the first time a mini-MPL was used for aerosol observation over...

Recently, deep learning has been highly successful in image classification. Labeling the PolSAR data, however, is time-consuming and laborious and in response semi-supervised deep learning has been increasingly investigated in PolSAR image classifica...

Laser return intensity (LRI) information obtained from airborne laser scanning (ALS) data has been used to classify land cover types and to reveal canopy physiological features. However, the sensor-related and environmental parameters may introduce n...

Building extraction and change detection are two important tasks in the remote sensing domain. Change detection between airborne laser scanning data and photogrammetric data is vulnerable to dense matching errors, mis-alignment errors and data gaps....

The resolution of current satellite surface soil moisture (SM) estimates is very low, of tens of kilometers, which proves to be insufficient for various agricultural and hydrological applications. Amongst the existing downscaling approaches of remote...

Disturbance monitoring is an important application of the Landsat times series, both to monitor forest dynamics and to support wise forest management at a variety of spatial and temporal scales. In the last decade, there has been an acceleration in t...

High-resolution multi-spectral images are desired for applications in remote sensing. However, multi-spectral images can only be provided in low resolutions by optical remote sensing satellites. The technique of pan-sharpening wants to generate high-...

During the last decades, archaeological site looting throughout Iraq has increased significantly up to a point where some of the most famous and relevant ancient Mesopotamian cities are currently threatened in their integrity. Several important archa...
