Harry Vereecken,Johan Alexander Huisman,Yakov Pachepsky,Carsten Montzka,J. van der Kruk,Heye Bogena,Lutz Weihermüller,Michael Herbst,Gonzalo Martinez,Jan Vanderborght +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the state of the art of characterizing and analyzing spatio-temporal dynamics of soil moisture content at the field scale and discuss measurement techniques that have become available in recent years and that provide unique opportunities to characterize field scale soil moisture variability with high spatial and temporal resolution.

Google Earth Engine, Open-Access Satellite Data, and Machine Learning in Support of Large-Area Probabilistic Wetland Mapping
TL;DR: This work developed a workflow for predicting the probability of wetland occurrence using a boosted regression tree machine-learning framework applied to digital topographic and EO data, and demonstrates the central role of high-quality topographic variables for modeling wetland distribution at regional scales.

Flood detection from multi-temporal SAR data using harmonic analysis and change detection
TL;DR: Harmonic analysis of a multi-temporal time series of >500 ENVISAT Advanced SAR scenes with a spatial resolution of 150 m was used to characterise the seasonality in backscatter under non-flooded conditions and an outlook for the proposed algorithm is given in the light of the Sentinel-1 mission.

Numerical solution of initial boundary value problems involving maxwell's equations in isotropic media
Abstract: Maxwell's equations are replaced by a set of finite difference equations. It is shown that if one chooses the field points appropriately, the set of finite difference equations is applicable for a boundary condition involving perfectly conducting surfaces. An example is given of the scattering of an electromagnetic pulse by a perfectly conducting cylinder.
