Evaluating the impact of Room for the River flood management measures on vegetation health and diversity in the Netherlands via optical remote sensing

Recent policy initiatives in Europe emphasize a movement towards nature-based solutions in flood management; however, a quantitative relationship between specific flood management measures and indicators of ecological health and biodiversity is difficult to establish (Penning et al., 2023). In the Netherlands, several studies have been conducted...

Displacement parameter estimation using permanent scatterer interferometry

Numerical accuracy of a two-stream radiative transfer model from comparison with an N-stream model

In the past, a relatively simple radiative transfer model, based on scattering and extinction of two semi-isotropic diffuse fluxes and two direct fluxes (solar beam and radiance in the viewing direction), has been applied to vegetation canopies and to the atmosphere. This model takes little computing power, but its numerical accuracy had not yet...
