Subjects--Topical
Remote sensing, Environmental sciences, Biogeochemistry
Description
The spatial heterogeneity of microtopography where variation in elevation is less than a meter plays a significant role in ecological, hydrological, and biogeochemical processes. The microtopography can be categorized into microtopographic feature...

Description
Six spatial parameters, (x, y, z) for translation, and pitch, roll, and yaw for rotation, are used to describe the 3-dimensional position and orientation of a rigid body - the 6 degrees of freedom (DOF). The ability to measure these parameters is ...

Description
Common pollutants present in cities, such as nitrogen dioxide (NO2), can cause a variety of adverse human health outcomes. Urban form (e.g., land cover and its spatial patterns) is a crucial factor contributing to air quality. There have been effo...
