(author), Dezfuli, Amin (author), Sadegh, Mojtaba (author), Famiglietti, James (author)Machine learning (ML) applications in Earth and environmental sciences (EES) have gained incredible momentum in recent years. However, these ML applications have largely evolved in ‘isolation’ from the mechanistic, process-based modelling (PBM) paradigms, which have historically been the cornerstone of scientific discovery and policy support....journal article 2022

Mandal, Dipankar (author), Kumar, V. (author), Lopez-Sanchez, Juan M. (author), Rao, Y. S. (author), McNairn, Heather (author), Bhattacharya, Avik (author), Mitchell, Scott (author)Biophysical parameters are descriptors of crop growth and production estimates. Retrieval of these biophysical parameters from synthetic aperture radar sensors at operational scales is highly interesting given the increase in access to data from radar missions. Vegetation backscattering can be simulated using the water cloud model (WCM). Crop...book chapter 2022

Vermunt, P.C. (author), Steele-Dunne, S.C. (author), Khabbazan, S. (author), Kumar, V. (author), Judge, Jasmeet (author)For a good interpretation of radar backscatter sensitivity to vegetation water dynamics, we need to know which parts of the vegetation layer control that backscatter. However, backscatter sensitivity to different depths in the canopy is poorly understood. This is partly caused by a lack of observational data to describe the vertical moisture...journal article 2022

Hille, Helge C. (author), Kumar, Siddhant (author), De Lorenzis, Laura (author)We propose Floating Isogeometric Analysis (FLIGA), which extends IGA to extreme deformation analysis. The method is based on a novel tensor-product construction of B-Splines for the update of the basis functions in one direction of the parametric space. With basis functions “floating” deformation-dependently in this direction, mesh distortion...journal article 2022
