Water body classification from high-resolution optical remote sensing (RS) images, aiming at
classifying whether each pixel of the image is water or not, has become a hot issue in the …

As the spatial and temporal resolution of remotely sensed imagery has improved over the
last four decades, algorithms for monitoring and mapping seasonal changes in surface …

The existence of supraglacial lakes influences debris-covered glaciers in two ways. The
absorption of solar radiation in the water leads to a higher ice ablation, and water draining …

We used Sentinel-2 satellite imagery at 10 m resolution to map the extent of Norway's
glaciers and ice-marginal lakes over 2018–19. We applied a standardized semi-automated …

Small water bodies (ie, ponds;< 0.01 km2) play an important role in Earth System processes,
including carbon cycling and emissions of methane. Detection and monitoring of ponds …

Climate change is increasing the risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) in many of the
world's most vulnerable and high mountain regions. Simultaneously, remote sensing …

Parcel-level cropland maps are an essential data source for crop yield estimation, precision
agriculture, and many other agronomy applications. Here, we proposed a rice field mapping …

The characteristics of glacial lakes are a precursor to glacier retreat, ice mass loss, velocity,
and potential risk of Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOF). The current state of the art for …

Retreating glaciers give way to new landscapes with lakes as an important element. In this
study, we combined available data on lake outlines with historical orthoimagery and glacier …

One reason for soil degradation is salinization in inland dryland, which poses a substantial
threat to arable land productivity. Remote-sensing technology provides a rapid and accurate …
