Background Due to their high protein content, nuts (almond, walnut, and pistachio) are
among the main substitutes for meat, with a growing share of the food basket in the United …

The ability to map floods from satellites has been known for over 40 years. Early images of
floods were rather difficult to obtain, and flood map** from satellites was thus rather …

This book provides a broad overview on the different aspects of solar energy, with a focus on
photovoltaics, which is the technology that allows light energy to be converted into electric …

Semantic segmentation of high-resolution remote sensing images plays an important role in
applications for building extraction. However, the current algorithms have some semantic …

We present a comprehensive critical review of well-established satellite remote sensing
water indices and offer a novel, robust Augmented Normalized Difference Water Index …

Since the publication of the first edition (1994) there have been rapid developments in the
application of hydrology, geomorphology and ecology to stream management. In particular …

Hyper-resolution datasets for urban flooding are rare. This problem prevents detailed
flooding risk analysis, urban flooding control, and the validation of hyper-resolution …

The empirical approach of remote sensing has a proven capability to provide timely and
accurate information on inland and near-coastal transitional waters. This article gives a …

A historical climatology of continuous satellite‐derived global land surface soil moisture is
being developed. The data consist of surface soil moisture retrievals derived from all …

This paper aims at contributing to the elaboration of new concepts for an efficient and
standardized Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) based monitoring of floods. Algorithms that …
