Satellite remote sensing has transformed the monitoring of surface water by providing consistent, synoptic observations of lakes, reservoirs, rivers and wetlands at regional to global scales.

Active microwave remote sensing has become an essential tool for many science disciplines that seek to observe and understand processes on Earth’s land surface. Over the past two decades, over 20 ...

Laser altimetry, commonly implemented via spaceborne and airborne LiDAR systems, has revolutionised the measurement of three-dimensional surface topography and vegetation canopy structure at scales ...

Satellites provide effective and efficient observations of the Earth, especially in hard-to-reach locations, like rivers and lakes in remote areas — but could they offer more comprehensive information ...

Altimetry measurement refers to quantitative methods for determining elevation or height relative to a reference surface, typically using active or passive remote sensing techniques. In geophysical ...

Active sensing encompasses the use of a transmitter and at least one receiver to measure (sense) the transmission or scattering properties of a medium at radio frequencies. In transmission ...
