Announcements

Glaciers are among the most important components of the Earth’s cryosphere, serving as natural reservoirs of freshwater, regulators of sea levels, and indicators of climate variability. Their role in sustaining ecosystems and human societies is unparalleled, yet they are increasingly threatened by rising global temperatures.

The scientific evidence underscores the alarming rate of glacier retreat, with profound implications for water security, sea-level rise, and the frequency of climate-related hazards such as floods and landslides. The loss of these ice masses not only disrupts hydrological cycles but also poses significant challenges to communities and economies worldwide.

MDPI is pleased to announce our participation in the 2025 AAG Annual Meeting (AAG 2025), held from 24 to 28 March 2025 in Detroit, MI, USA.

AAG 2025 will revolve around the theme of “Making Spaces of Possibility”. It will bring together geographers of many perspectives and specialties to learn from Detroit, envisioning solutions for the region it is part of and for places around the world.

To make spaces of possibility is to leverage geographic insight, knowledge, and tools to counter the historical legacies of racial exclusion and (settler) colonialism; to address current threats to democracy and the environment; and to work toward climate justice.

The following MDPI journals will be represented at the event:

• Remote Sensing;
• Sustainability;
• Earth;
• Geographies;
• Climate;
• Hydrology;
• Land;
• Water;
• Fire;
• Atmosphere;
• World;
• Drones;
• Geomatics;
• Quaternary.

If you are attending AAG 2025, we invite you to visit us at booth #111. Our representatives, Mr. Elvis Wang and Ms. Sofia Zelko, will be available to discuss publishing opportunities, the benefits of open access, and our commitment to advancing geosciences research.

For more information about the conference, please visit its official website: https://www.aag.org/events/aag2025/.

MDPI is pleased to share a significant milestone in its mission to advance scholarly research and promote the dissemination of knowledge—300+ MDPI journals are now indexed in Web of Science (WoS).

Permafrost plays a crucial role in the Earth’s climate system, storing vast amounts of carbon and influencing ecosystems, infrastructure, and communities in Arctic and sub-Arctic regions. However, as the climate warms, permafrost has begun to thaw at an accelerated rate, creating significant environmental and socioeconomic challenges.

In this webinar, we will explore the critical role of Earth Observation (EO) technologies in monitoring and understanding permafrost changes. From satellite imagery to remote sensing techniques, EO provides valuable, real-time data that help researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders track permafrost dynamics, assess risks, and develop strategies for mitigation and adaptation. Join us to learn how cutting-edge EO innovations are advancing the science of permafrost monitoring and shaping the future of Arctic sustainability. To this end, key research findings will be presented from EO-PERSIST, an EU-funded project that aims to develop a cloud-based platform for mapping the socioeconomic impacts of climate change in the Arctic regions.

Soil moisture plays a crucial role in the exchange of water and energy within the soil–plant–atmosphere system. Its significance is acknowledged across a spectrum of environmental disciplines, encompassing meteorology, hydrology, agriculture, and climate change studies. Consequently, the precise monitoring and estimation of the spatial and temporal fluctuations in soil moisture are of particular importance.

Remote sensing technologies have revolutionized our ability to monitor soil moisture dynamics at a regional scale. Satellite-based remote sensing offers a global-scale perspective with continuous spatiotemporal resolution, making it a cornerstone for soil moisture estimation. During the last few decades, significant progress has been made in estimating soil moisture from remote sensing data. Advancements in both active and passive remote sensing technologies, satellite remote sensing, drone technologies, and data assimilation methods have enabled us to obtain soil moisture estimations at different spatial scales from meters to tens of kilometers, in addition to temporal resolutions from hours to daily.

However, obtaining reliable soil moisture information at the required spatiotemporal resolution and along soil depth with a high level of accuracy is still challenging, especially due to highly variable soil moisture behavior on its spatiotemporal domains and its complex relationships with forcing factors such as vegetation, soil texture, topography, and meteorology. The retrieval of soil moisture remains challenging due to limited satellite observations, the high correlation between different polarizations, angles, and channels, and the uncertainties in radiative transfer models and ancillary datasets.

As part of this webinar, it is our great honor to invite Prof. Dr. Arnon Karnieli to discuss soil moisture retrieval from remote sensing data. He will discuss the OPTRAM model and its applications in worldwide rangelands. Prof. Dr. Maofang Gao will discuss soil moisture retrieval from L-band SAR data.

World Wetlands Day is celebrated each year on 2 February to raise awareness about wetlands. This day also marks the anniversary of the Convention on Wetlands, which was adopted as an international treaty in 1971.

Nearly 90% of the world’s wetlands have been degraded since the 1700s, and we are losing wetlands three times faster than forests. Yet, wetlands are critically important ecosystems that contribute to biodiversity, climate mitigation and adaptation, freshwater availability, world economies and more.

“Protecting Wetlands for Our Common Future” is the theme for World Wetlands Day 2025.
