Shear-wave splitting observations can provide insight into mantle flow, due to the link between deformation of rocks and their direction-dependent seismic wave velocities. We identify anisotropy in Cook Inlet segment Alaska subduction zone by analyzing parameters S waves from local intraslab earthquakes 50 200 km depths, recorded 2015–2017 emphasizing stations Southern Lithosphere Mantle Observ...

Two VIIRS sensors onboard the SNPP and NOAA20 satellites have been successfully operating for over 10 4 years, respectively, providing worldwide user community with high-quality imagery radiometric measurements of land, atmosphere, cryosphere, oceans. This study provides a temporal stability calibration consistency assessment reflective solar bands using latest NASA SIPS C2 L1B products. Severa...

The leaf area index (LAI), a key parameter used to characterize the structure and function of vegetation canopy, is crucial simulations carbon, nitrogen, water cycles Earth’s system. In this paper, neural network (NN) method coupled with canopy atmospheric radiative transfer (RT) proposed realize LAI retrieval without prior data support complex corrections. look-up table (LUT) top-of-atmosphere...

Two MODIS sensors onboard the Terra and Aqua spacecraft have been successfully operating for over twenty-three twenty-one years, respectively, providing worldwide user community with high-quality imagery radiometric Earth observations of land, atmosphere, cryosphere, oceans. This study provides an assessment calibration stability consistency RSB using L1B from upcoming Collection 7 release. Sev...

Human population movements in North Africa have been mostly restricted to an east-west direction due to the geographical barriers imposed by the Sahara Desert and the Mediterranean Sea. Although these barriers have not completely impeded human migrations, genetic studies have shown that an east-west genetic gradient exists. However, the lack of genetic information of certain geographical areas ...

atmospheric correction of the satellite data, for example correction of visible and near-infrared spectral bands, requires removing the adjacency effect that is due to the reflection from contiguous pixels. To evaluate the accuracy of the ATCOR software atmospheric correction method of Terra/ASTER data (Jun 30, 2002) we compared the NDVI parameters taken from different sources, such as ground m...

Cloud is one of the most common interferers in Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrum-radiometer (MODIS) remote sensing imagery. Because of cloud interference, much important and useful information covered by cloud cannot be recovered well. How to detect and remove cloud from MODIS imagery is an important issue for wide application of remote sensing data. In general, cloud can be roughly divided ...

Accurate habitat prediction is important to improve fishing efficiency. Most of the current habitat-prediction studies use single-source datasets and sequence model based on datasets, which, a certain extent, limits further improvement accuracy. In this paper, we propose method multi-source heterogeneous remote-sensing data fusion, using product-level L1B-level original data. We designed featur...
