Quantifying Seismic Source Parameter Uncertainties
We use data from a small aperture array in southern California to quantify variations in source parameter estimates at closely spaced stations (distances ranging from ∼7 to 350 m) to provide constraints on parameter uncertainties. Many studies do not consider uncertainties in these estimates even though they can be significant and have important implications for studies of earthquake source phy...
متن کاملAssessing uncertainties in land cover projections.
Understanding uncertainties in land cover projections is critical to investigating land-based climate mitigation policies, assessing the potential of climate adaptation strategies and quantifying the impacts of land cover change on the climate system. Here, we identify and quantify uncertainties in global and European land cover projections over a diverse range of model types and scenarios, ext...
متن کاملSentinel-1 Land Surface Parameter Applications
The availability of reliable land surface information is crucial for a wide range of applications such as environmental monitoring including essential climate change variables, or agroeconomical aspects for a sustainable land management. Compared to optical remote sensing data, radar sensors can provide datasets with regular coverage of a specific area without suffering from missing images beca...
متن کاملUncertainties in land use data
This paper deals with the description and assessment of uncertainties in land use data derived from Remote Sensing observations, in the context of hydrological studies. Land use is a categorical regionalised variable reporting the main socio-economic role each location has, where the role is inferred from the pattern of occupation of land. The properties of this pattern that are relevant to hyd...
متن کاملAn Improved Land Surface Emissivity Parameter for Land Surface Models Using Global Remote Sensing Observations
Because land surface emissivity ( ) has not been reliably measured, global climate model (GCM) land surface schemes conventionally set this parameter as simply constant, for example, 1 as in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) model, and 0.96 for bare soil as in the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Commun...
