New pan-Arctic (> 60 degrees N) snowmelt onset and end date records (2000-2005) were produced from enhanced resolution (4.45 km) QuikSCAT (QSCAT) Ku-band backscatter measurements. A modified threshold method was used to detect multiple melt events and the main melt event was identified by the longest melt duration or the largest melt intensity. Algorithm validation was performed with a Circum-Arctic network of station measurements extracted from the Global Surface Summary of Day product maintained by the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). Estimates of melt onset date corresponded to a clear shift in the statistical distribution of mean daily air temperatures from largely below freezing to above freezing. Melt was not detected in 7% of the cases mainly over dense boreal forest cover, or very shallow tundra snow cover. QSCAT-derived melt end dates were significantly correlated with station-derived snow-off estimates (r(2)= 0.79: RMSE = 11.6 days). The difference between the two estimates was within one week for 70% of the cases so there is good potential to use QSCAT-derived melt end dates to approximate snow-off dates across the pan-Arctic region. There was a tendency for QSCAT-derived snow-off dates to be biased early over dense forest regions due to a diminished backscatter melt signature. Crown Copyright (c) 2008 Published by Elsevier Inc.

Summary: A novel method is applied in this study to directly use satellite data to evaluate the spatial patterns of urban NOx emissions inventories. The results show that the 108 spatial surrogates used by NEMO are generally appropriate, but there may be underestimation in areas with dense intermodal facilities and overestimation in wealthy communities.

Summary: In this paper, a mathematical framework is proposed to improve the retrieval of surface reflectance and atmospheric parameters by leveraging the expected spatial smoothness of the atmosphere. Experimental results show that this framework can reduce the surface reflectance retrieval error and surface-related biases.

Summary: This study presents the Field Rover method, which uses vehicle-mounted cameras to collect ground truth data on crop harvesting status. The machine learning approach and remote sensing technology are employed to upscale the results to a regional scale. The accuracy of the remote sensing method in predicting crop harvesting dates is validated through comparison with satellite data.

Low-amplitude brittle deformations revealed by UAV surveys in alluvial fans along the northwest coast of Lake Baikal: Neotectonic significance and geological hazards

Oksana V. Lunina, Anton A. Gladkov, Alexey V. Bochalgin

Summary: In this study, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) was used to detect and map surface discontinuities with displacements of a few centimeters, indicating the presence of initial geological deformations. The study found that sediments of alluvial fans are susceptible to various tectonic and exogenous deformational processes, and the interpretation of ultra-high resolution UAV images can help recognize low-amplitude brittle deformations at an early stage. UAV surveys are critical for discerning neotectonic activity and its related hazards over short observation periods.

Choosing a sample size allocation to strata based on trade-offs in precision when estimating accuracy and area of a rare class from a stratified sample

Stephen Stehman, John E. Wagner

Summary: This article investigates optimal sample allocation in stratified random sampling for estimation of accuracy and proportion of area in applications where the target class is rare. The study finds that precision of estimated accuracy has a stronger impact on sample allocation than estimation of proportion of area, and the trade-offs among these estimates become more pronounced as the target class becomes rarer. The results provide quantitative evidence to guide sample allocation decisions in specific applications.

Use of a new Tibetan Plateau network for permafrost to characterize satellite-based products errors: An application to soil moisture and freeze/ thaw

Summary: Soil moisture and freeze/thaw (F/T) play a crucial role in water and heat exchanges at the land-atmosphere interface. This study reports the establishment of a wireless sensor network for soil moisture and temperature over the permafrost region of Tibetan Plateau. Satellite-based surface soil moisture (SSM) and F/T products were evaluated using ground-based measurements. The results show the reliability of L-band passive microwave SSM and F/T products, while existing F/T products display earlier freezing and later thawing, leading to unsatisfactory accuracy.
