The emergence of hyperspectral imagery paved a new way for rapid mineral mapping. As a classical hyperspectral classification method, spectral matching (SM) can automatically map the spatial distribution of minerals without the need for selecting tra...
Arctic sea ice and snow affect the energy balance of the global climate system through the radiation budget. Accurate determination of the snow cover over Arctic sea ice is significant for the retrieval of the sea ice thickness (SIT). In this study,...
Forest aboveground biomass (AGB) is of great significance since it represents large carbon storage and may reduce global climate change. However, there are still considerable uncertainties in forest AGB estimates, especially in rugged regions, due to...
Hyperspectral (HS) images are adjacent band images that are generally used in remote-sensing applications. They have numerous spatial and spectral information bands that are extremely useful for material detection in various fields. However, their hi...
Accurate wetland mapping is essential for their protection and management; however, it is difficult to accurately identify seasonal wetlands because of irregular rainfall and the potential lack of water inundation. In this study, we propose a novel m...
Classification and segmentation of point clouds have attracted increasing attention in recent years. On the one hand, it is difficult to extract local features with geometric information. On the other hand, how to select more important features corre...
High-resolution wide-swath (HRWS) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) plays an important role in remote sensing observation. However, the motion errors caused by the carrier platform’s instability severely degrade the performance of the HRWS SAR ima...
The estimation of tropical cyclone (TC) intensity using Ku-band scatterometer data is challenging due to rain perturbation and signal saturation in the radar backscatter measurements. In this paper, an alternative approach to directly taking the maxi...
This study presents an updated global mangrove forest baseline for 2010: Global Mangrove Watch (GMW) v2.5. The previous GMW maps (v2.0) of the mangrove extent are currently considered the most comprehensive available global products, however areas we...
Lakes play a key role in the global water cycle, providing essential water resources and ecosystem services for humans and wildlife. Quantifying long-term changes in lake volume at a global scale is therefore important to the sustainability of humani...
