Abstract Prior studies on Remote Sensing Foundation Model (RSFM) reveal immense
potential towards a generic model for Earth Observation. Nevertheless these works primarily …

Protected areas are the cornerstones of conservation efforts to mitigate the anthropogenic
pressures driving biodiversity loss. Nations aim to protect 30% of Earth's land and water by …

Global impervious surface area (ISA) has more than doubled over the last three decades,
but the associated carbon emissions resulting from the depletion of pre-existing land carbon …

Urbanization exerts considerable impact on ecological, environmental and meteorological
processes and systems. However, the effects of urbanization on local drought remain under …

Impervious surface area (ISA) mapping at the global scale has entered a new era. Currently,
the number of high-resolution global ISA products is gradually increasing; however, a …

Artificial impervious surface area (ISA) documents human footprints. Accurate, timely, and
detailed ISA datasets are therefore essential for global climate change and urban planning …

Improvements in high-resolution satellite remote sensing and computational advancements
have sped up the development of global datasets that delineate urban land, crucial for …

The accelerated process of urbanization has led to a crisis in the urban thermal
environment, giving rise to the urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon. During summer, the …

The estimation of surface urban heat island intensity (SUHII) is crucial for studying the urban
thermal environment, which is influenced not only by the commonly known definition of rural …

Long-term trends in urban vegetation greenness were systematically analyzed. However,
long-term trends in vegetation greenness under different urban development intensities …
