Characterizing tundra snow sub-pixel variability to improve brightness temperature estimation in satellite SWE retrievals by J. Meloche, J. Meloche, A. Langlois, A. Langlois, N. Rutter, A. Royer, A. Royer, J. King, B. Walker, P. Marsh, E. J. Wilcox

“…Snow depth variability (CV<span class="inline-formula">_sd</span>) was found to increase as a function of the area measured by a remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS). Distributions of snow specific surface area (SSA) and density were found for the wind slab (WS) and depth hoar (DH) layers. …”

Detection of oak decline using radiative transfer modelling and machine learning from multispectral and thermal RPAS imagery by A. Hornero, P.J. Zarco-Tejada, I. Marengo, N. Faria, R. Hernández-Clemente

“…Our study, therefore, demonstrates that the tandem use of multispectral and thermal sensors onboard a remotely piloted aircraft platform, together with a radiative transfer modelling and machine learning approach, helps us to predict the impact of this particularly damaging disease on oak trees. …”
