Diurnal Cycle of Passive Microwave Brightness Temperatures over Land at a Global Scale
Published 2021-02-01“…Furthermore, seasonal variations in the diurnal TB range for different land cover types show a more consistent result over the Southern Hemisphere than over the Northern Hemisphere. The calibrated TB diurnal cycle may then be used to consistently estimate the diurnal cycle of land surface emissivity. …”

Reconstruction of Vegetation Index Time Series Based on Self-Weighting Function Fitting from Curve Features
Published 2022-05-01“…The results indicate that the weighted function fitting with SWCF outperformed the corresponding unweighted function fitting with the root-mean-square error (RMSE) significantly reduced by 26.82–52.44% (<i>p</i> < 0.05), and it also outperformed the Savitzky–Golay filtering with the RMSE significantly reduced by 13.98–54.04% (<i>p</i> < 0.05) for 270 sample points selected in mid-high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere. Moreover, SWCF showed excellent robustness and applicability in regional applications.…”

Historical Mitogenomic Diversity and Population Structuring of Southern Hemisphere Fin Whales
Published 2023-05-01“…Our data, both independently and when combined with mitogenomes from the literature, suggest SHFWs are highly diverse and may represent a single panmictic population that is genetically differentiated from Northern Hemisphere populations. These are the first historic mitogenomes available for SHFWs, providing a unique time series of genetic data for this species.…”

High potential for loss of permafrost landforms in a changing climate
Published 2020-01-01“…We deploy a statistical ensemble approach to model, for the first time, the current and potential future environmental conditions of three typical permafrost landforms, pingos, ice-wedge polygons and rock glaciers across the Northern Hemisphere. We show that by midcentury, the landforms are projected to lose more than one-fifth of their suitable environments under a moderate climate scenario (RCP4.5) and on average around one-third under a very high baseline emission scenario (RCP8.5), even when projected new suitable areas for occurrence are considered. …”

Future Directions in Eubalaena spp.: Comparative Research to Inform Conservation
Published 2019-01-01“…All three extant right whales [Eubalaena australis (Southern; SRW), glacialis (North Atlantic; NARW), and japonica (North Pacific; NPRW)] were heavily exploited, and the status of the two northern hemisphere species remains precarious. Recently, limited gains made by the NARW have been reversed and urgent changes to management approaches are needed if extinction is to be averted. …”
