Extremely exciting news for the future of Satellite #lidar! #EDGE has been selected to the next round by NASA! What is EDGE? Led by the amazing PI Helen Amanda Fricker ❄️❄️ ❄️🧊 and Deputy PI John Armston 🌳 this would be the natural continuity of both GEDI and ICESat-2
We mapped a half billion individual farmland trees in India, and tracked their fate over a decade. Many large trees have disappeared. The paper in Nature Sus.: doi.org/10.1038/s41893…, Viewer: rs-cph.projects.earthengine.app/view/tree. It's a new framework for temporal monitoring of single trees..
If you are at the Canadian Symposium on Remote Sensing check out our lab's presentation, wildfire carbon emissions by Zilong Zhong and peat depth mapping by Yiyao Li this afternoon, canopy height mapping by José Bermúdez and UAV LiDAR biomass estimation by Kangyu So tomorrow
We have a new preprint on Earth & Space Science Open Archive mapping peat depth and carbon storage of the Hudson Bay Lowlands. Peat depth increases with increasing distance from the coastline due to ongoing glacial isostatic adjustment since ice retreat began. essopenarchive.org/doi/full/10.22…
A Global Probability‐Of‐Fire (PoF) Forecast - using machine learning to forecast global fire activity up to 10 days at 9 & 1 km led by Joe McNorton & ECMWF colleagues published in Geophysical Research Letters Copernicus ECMWF Copernicus EMS AGU (American Geophysical Union) agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/20…
🚨 Collapse of the land carbon sink in 2023 🚨 As the CO2 growth rate reached a record high at Mauna Loa, we set up a low-latency analysis of the carbon budget and found that plants and soils absorbed almost no CO2 last year GlobalCarbonProject Gianpaolo Balsamo arxiv.org/abs/2407.12447
Today at BE-STEMM, I spoke about our research at the Gonsamo Group on quantifying carbon emissions from wildfires in Canada using machine learning. Special thanks to my co-authors: Zilong Zhong , Cheryl Rogers 🇨🇦 , José Bermúdez , and Alemu Gonsamo. #Wildfire #RemoteSensing #ML
New paper published in Nature Communications The 2023 fire season in Canada is a wake-up call: severe climate impacts on fire activity are arriving decades earlier than predicted. Building fire-resilient environments is now more critical than ever! Natural Resources CEF_CFR nature.com/articles/s4146…
