Abstract Soil as a medium for plant growth is the most important factor in agriculture. capability closely related to soil fertility which describes productivity producing optimal agricultural production. Cugenang District located Cianjur Regency, has abundant rice crops. also experiences changes land use and disasters that can decrease land’s ability. This study aims map analyze of management ...

The topographical characteristic features of a land surface landforms, elevation, rocks, soils, and vegetation. The study was undertaken to prepare an inventory of terrain characteristics. The study area is North latitudes 17d27’00”: 18d18’00”and East longitudes 77d 28’00” and is included in Survey of India toposheets 56G6, 56G10, 56G13, 56G14, 56G15, 56K02, 56K03, 56K06, and 56K07). The IRS-ID...

Whereas C-band SAR data mainly provides information on the upper layer of land covers, properties of the lower surfaces can be captured using L-band SAR because of its higher capability of penetration. Moreover, optical imagery illuminates different characteristics of ground surfaces compared to radar images since they are obtained at different frequencies of the electro-magnetic spectrum. Henc...

In this study, the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model is coupled with the Advanced Canopy– Atmosphere–Soil Algorithm (ACASA), a high-complexity land surface model. Although WRF is a state-of-the-art regional atmospheric model with high spatial and temporal resolutions, the land surface schemes available in WRF, such as the popular NOAH model, are simple and lack the capability of repr...

China has to feed 20% of the global population with only about 5% of the planet's water resources and 7% of its arable land. With such limited natural conditions, however, China's grain production has increased from about 200 kg per capita in 1949 to about 400 kg in the early 1990s. Hunger as a social problem has largely disappeared after being prevalent in China for several thousand years with...

all-weather, dayand-night imaging capability for mapping the Earth’s surface. Through interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) technique, radar imagery can be used to map Earth surface characteristics and measure land surface deformation at an unprecedented precision and spatial resolution. This article introduces the basics of radar and InSAR imaging, summarizes the revolution of InSAR...
