Accurate determination of rice residue cover (RRC) can improve the monitoring of tillage
information. Currently, the accurate determination of RRC using optical remote sensing is …

Quantifying evapotranspiration (ET) is crucial for a valid understanding of the global water
cycle and for the precise management of the resource. However, accurately estimating ET …

Mapping the spatial distribution of woody vegetation is important for monitoring, managing,
and studying woody encroachment in grasslands. However, in semi-arid regions, remotely …

Conservation tillage (CT) is a new tillage method to prevent soil erosion by retaining a
certain crop residue amount on the soil surface, supplemented with other protective …

During 2012–2016 California experienced the longest and most severe drought in the last
centuries. This water scarcity led to an increase in non-cultivated croplands during this …

Determining residue cover on agricultural land is an important task. Residue cover helps
reduce soil erosion and helps sequester carbon. Many studies have used either spectral …

Non-photosynthetic vegetation (NPV) plays a key role in soil conservation, which in turn is
important in sustainable agriculture and carbon farming. For mapping NPV image …
