A novel approach combining LSTM neural networks with process-based ecological understanding to predict evapotranspiration and ecosystem respiration. The method integrates temporal pattern recognition ...

A custom atmospheric correction procedure for VSWIR hyperspectral data that uses ACORN-6LX software with 200-meter processing kernels incorporating local topography and view-angle geometry to account ...

Frequent collection and ICP-MS analysis of river water samples to detect thorium concentration excursions as indicators of bedrock fracture processes. Samples collected up to daily frequency and analy...

Numerical solution of the one-dimensional Richards equation using PFLOTRAN software to simulate soil water flow and generate synthetic soil moisture data for method testing.

A methodology using random forest algorithms to fill missing values in sub-hourly groundwater monitoring data with entropy-based uncertainty quantification.

A custom ray tracing algorithm that generates shade masks for hyperspectral imagery by calculating paths between the sun, ground points, and sensor using solar geometry, sensor view angles, and digita...

Use of small unoccupied aircraft systems with thermal infrared cameras to identify groundwater discharge zones in stream corridors through temperature contrast detection. Real-time thermal data visual...

In-field filtering of water samples using 0.2 µm polyethersulfone syringe filters. Removes particulate matter from surface water and groundwater samples.

Methane concentrations measured using headspace equilibration technique and gas chromatograph with flame ionization detector.

Images were processed in Agisoft Metashape Software to derive a georeferenced dense point cloud and 3D model, then orthorectified and combined into a mosaic.
