Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of wavelength selection on characterization of fire size and temperature

TL;DR: In this paper, Dozier's 1981 retrieval method has been used with observations from various moderate-resolution (∼ 1 km) spaceborne sensors to estimate the instantaneous sub-pixel area and temperature of wildfires.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factors controlling vegetation fires in protected and non-protected areas of myanmar.

TL;DR: The fire susceptibility analysis showed distinct spatial patterns with central Myanmar as a hot spot of vegetation fires, and results from propensity score matching suggested that forests within protected areas have 11% less fires than non-protected areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Central African forests, carbon and climate change

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an assessment of the current state of the forests of Central Africa, their carbon stock, recent rates of deforestation and a simple predictive model of forest change over the next 60 yr.
Journal ArticleDOI

Land cover, land use changes and air pollution in Asia: a synthesis

TL;DR: It is concluded that for effective pollution mitigation in S/SEA countries, quantifying drivers, sources and impacts of pollution need a thorough data analysis through ground-based instrumentation, models and integrated research approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI

No pixel left behind: Toward integrating Earth Observations for agriculture into the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals framework

TL;DR: The work in this paper describes the current and potential uses of remote sensed Earth observations (EO) data and tools that can support the SDGs, particularly highlighting the activities of the Group on Earth Observations Global Agricultural Monitoring (GEOGLAM) Initiative, composed of agricultural ministries, intergovernmental organizations, research entities, universities, space agencies, and members of industry concerned with agricultural monitoring.
