The identified lake area increase over time led to higher lacustrine carbon emissions, mostly attributed to small lakes. Our findings illustrate the emerging roles of small lakes in regulating not only local inland water variability, but also the global trends of surface water extent and carbon emissions.

Global warming is expected to cause wet seasons to get wetter and dry seasons to get drier, which would have broad social and ecological implications. However, the extent to which this seasonal paradigm holds over land remains unclear. Here we examine seasonal changes in surface water availability (precipitation minus evaporation, P-E) from CMIP5 and CMIP6 projections. While the P-E seasonal cycle does broadly intensify over much of the land surface, ~20% of land area experiences a diminished…

Contemporary climatic stress seriously affects rice production. Unfortunately, long-term domestication and improvement modified the phytohormones network to achieve the production needs of cultivated rice, thus leading to a decrease in adaptation. Here, we identify a 14-3-3 protein-coding gene OsGF14h in weedy rice that confers anaerobic germination and anaerobic seedling development tolerance. OsGF14h acts as a signal switch to balance ABA signaling and GA biosynthesis by interacting with th…

It uses coastal ecosystems such as mangrove forests to create resilient designs for coastal flood protection. However, to use mangroves effectively as a nature-based measure for flood risk reduction, we must understand the biophysical processes that govern risk reduction capacity through mangrove ecosystem size and structure. In this perspective, we ev…

Abstract European forests are an important source for timber production, human welfare, income, protection and biodiversity. During the last two decades, Europe has experienced a number of droughts which have been exceptional within the last 500 years, both in terms of duration and intensity. These droughts seem to leave remarkable imprints on the mortality dynamics of European forests. However, systematic observations on tree decline, with emphasis on a single species, has been scarce so far…
Remote Sensing of Groundwater: Current Capabilities and Future Directions

Abstract Globally, groundwater represents a critical natural resource that is affected by changes in natural supply and renewal, as well as by increasing human demand and consumption. However, despite its critical role, groundwater is difficult to accurately quantify as it is beneath the Earth surface. Here, we review several state‐of‐the‐art remote sensing techniques useful for local‐ to global‐scale groundwater monitoring and assessment, including proxies for groundwater extraction. These i…
A methodology for mapping annual flood extent using multi-temporal Sentinel-1 imagery
Authors: Ted McCormack, Joan Campanyà, Owen Naughton
Journal: Remote Sensing of Environment · DOI: 10.1016/j.rse.2022.113273 · Citations: 81
Matched topics: flood
A novel automated approach for mapping nonurban flood extents using satellite-based Sentinel-1C-band SAR data is presented and applied in the Republic of Ireland. The methodology mapped the maximum flood extent of over 25,000 detected water bodies across Ireland over a five-year period (2016–2021). Flood extents were classified using a semi-automatic tile-based histogram thresholding approach and refined using a series of post processing filters. These included multi-temporal filters which ex…
Microplastic trapping in dam reservoirs driven by complex hydrosedimentary processes (Villerest Reservoir, Loire River, France)
Authors: Elie Dhivert, N.N. Phuong, Brice Mourier, Cécile Grosbois, Johnny Gaspéri

Dam reservoirs can strongly influence the spatial distribution of sediment pollution by microplastics (MP). The Villerest reservoir (Loire River, 36 km long) is a good candidate to study the relationship between MP pollution and hydrosedimentary processes. Sediments were collected from the dam-controlled river section and from 3 km downstream. Geomorphological and sedimentological analyses were performed and microplastics were analysed using µFTIR imaging (polymer identification for particle …
Geodiversity and Biodiversity

Abstract Non-living and living nature are inherently connected. Geodiversity, which consists of the variation in geology, soils, topography, geomorphology and hydrology, is seen as the foundation and stage for biodiversity. Underlying theory suggests that the increasing variation in the abiotic foundation creates and maintains available niche space for different organisms to thrive, resulting in higher biodiversity. Emerging scientific observations support this premise, indicating a positive …
