DOI: 10.1109/jstars.2020.2983331
Abstract: Accurate estimation of gross domestic product (GDP) at small geographies is of great significance to evaluate the distribution and dynamics of socio-economic development. Nighttime light (NTL) data is becoming increasingly important in socio-economic data estimation.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2745.13200
Abstract: Most plant species are spatially aggregated. Local demographic and ecological processes (e.g. vegetative growth and limited seed dispersal) result in a clustered spatial pattern within an environmentally homogenous area. Spatial aggregation should be considered when… read more here.

Assessing the Impact of Land Use and Land Cover Data Representation on Weather Forecast Quality: A Case Study in Central Mexico
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Atmosphere"
DOI: 10.3390/atmos11111242
Abstract: In atmospheric modeling, an accurate representation of land cover is required because such information impacts water and energy budgets and, consequently, the performance of models in simulating regional climate. This study analyzes the impact of… read more here.
