Remote Sensing for Water Resources and Environmental Management by Timothy Dube, Munyaradzi D. Shekede, Christian Massari

“…Most of the studies made use of satellite datasets, ranging from coarse spatial resolution data, such as the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and GRACE Follow-On (GRACE-FO), to medium spatial resolution data, such as the Landsat series, ERA5, Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Application Land version 2 reanalysis product (MERRA2), CLSM and NOAH ET, and MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer). …”

Remote sensing-based vegetation and soil moisture constraints reduce irrigation estimation uncertainty by Wanshu Nie, Sujay V Kumar, Rajat Bindlish, Pang-Wei Liu, Shugong Wang

“…Here, we demonstrate the potential of utilizing remotely sensed vegetation and soil moisture observations in constraining irrigation estimation in the Noah-MP land surface model. Results indicate that the two constraints together can effectively reduce model sensitivity to the choice of irrigation parameterization by 7%–43%. …”

The Genesis of Jewish Genealogy by Aaron Demsky

“…The underlying message of this chapter is the value concept of the brotherhood of mankind stemming from one father—Noah. This innovative idea of universal kinship breaks with the common pagan view prevalent in antiquity that man’s place is to serve the gods and to have little or no personal identity. …”

A grid-based interpretable machine learning method to understand the spatial relationships between watershed properties and water quality by Zhenyu Zhang, Georg Hörmann, Jinliang Huang, Nicola Fohrer

“…A grid-based model was developed with 1837 input features for streams and reservoirs, respectively, based on land use, population, fertilizer, and Noah land surface model in the MRW. Compared to the water quality in the stream, the water quality in the reservoirs may be more sensitive to the change environmental settings. …”

Assessing CYGNSS Satellite Soil Moisture Data for Drought Monitoring with Multiple Datasets and Indicators by Zhaolu Hou, Zhaoxia Pu

“…Spanning from 1 January 2018 to 31 December 2022, this research analyzed daily CYGNSS soil moisture data, comparing them with the ERA5, SMAP, and GLDAS-NOAH datasets. It was found that the average and standard deviation (std) of CYGNSS soil moisture exhibited spatial patterns largely similar to other datasets, although some regions showed discrepancies (std differences reached up to 0.05 in some regions). …”

Equality, diversity and inclusion: learning from laying our cards on the table (resource showcase) by Matthew Sillence, Hanh Doan, Amanda Clark

“…This session, led by learning developers and teaching staff, explored the idea of the ‘brave space’ (Arao and Clemens, 2013, p. 142; Palfrey, 2017) and why ‘serious play’ is important in learning (Rieber, Smith and Noah, 1998, p. 29). It discussed where and when the cards can be used, in terms of: a physical or digital space; the curriculum or disciplinary context; and the stage of the learner’s journey. …”

Watershed‐Scale Effective Hydraulic Properties of the Continental United States by Arik Tashie, Tamlin Pavelsky, Lawrence Band, Simon Topp

“…Because estimates of S are much lower than the global maximums generally used in LSMs (e.g., 5,000 mm in Noah‐MP), they may serve both to limit model spin‐up time and to constrain model parameters to more realistic values. …”
