Chinese Researchers Reveal How Vegetation Structure Biases Satellite Observation

Vegetation is a crucial part of terrestrial ecosystems and an important indicator of climate change. A team of Chinese researchers has reported that the structural complexity of vegetation may influence satellites’ remote sensing monitoring. Vegetation indices (VIs), derived from satellite data, are widely used for monitoring terrestrial ecosystems and tracking plant properties, vegetation changes, and ...

Using Remote Sensing Technology To Measure Vehicle Emissions

Using Remote Sensing Technology To Measure Vehicle Emissions

While laboratory-based emissions testing can help keep polluting vehicles off the road, they alone are not enough. What is needed is new technologies, such as remote emission sensing (RES). RES uses sensors and cameras to automatically measure exhaust emissions from vehicles in real-world operation. While RES may be a proven technology, it is not widely ...
