It plays a critical role in response to climate change and serves as a primary source of freshwater (Li et al., 2018; Yao et al., 2022). In recent decades, the cryosphere has undergone rapid changes, such as the melting of glaciers and sea ice, the decrease of snow cover and the degradation of permafrost. These changes have far-reaching consequences for both Earth’s climate system and the living environment of humans. Therefore, cryosphere research is of great importance to understand cryospheric change and its potential impacts on other spheres of the Earth. Over the last decades, there have been notable advancements in cryosphere monitoring through remote sensing technology. The improvement in spatial and temporal resolution of satellite imagery has contributed significantly to enhancing the understanding of cryosphere processes as well as allowing the development of new algorithms, data products and interdisciplinary integration with other fields of study. Despite significant advancements in cryosphere research, certain limitations still exist. Satellite images can be affected by cloud cover, atmospheric interference, and other factors that can limit accuracy and reliability. Furthermore, integrating these data with ground-based measurements and other forms of data is still challenging to comprehensively understand the changes in the cryosphere and its response to climate change. Remote sensing provides a viable option for studying the cryosphere in space due to its inaccessibility. Modern satellites and high-quality data provide a rich resource for cryosphere-related studies, while efficient algorithms make it more capable. Remote sensing is typically used to evaluate past changes and regularly monitor different components of the cryosphere. This facilitates better attribution and prediction of climatic parameters and their potential impacts on the cryosphere. In this Research Topic, we have collated three research articles that demonstrate the importance of remote sensing in cryosphere research and highlight recent significant advances in related fields.

The mapping and documentation of avalanches in Austria is mostly done by experts during field observations and covers usually only specific localized areas. A comprehensive mapping of avalanches is, however, crucial for the work of local avalanche commissions as well as avalanche warning services to assess, e.g., the avalanche danger. Over the past decade, mapping avalanches from satellite imagery has proven to be a promising and rapid approach to monitor avalanche activity in specific regions. Several recent avalanche detection approaches use deep learning-based algorithms to improve detection rates compared to traditional segmentation algorithms. Building on the success of these deep learning-based approaches, we present the first steps to build a modular data pipeline to map historical avalanche cycles in Copernicus Sentinel-1 imagery of the Austrian Alps. The Sentinel-1 mission has provided free all-weather synthetic aperture radar data since 2014, which has proven suitable for avalanche mapping in a Norwegian test area. In addition, we present a roadmap for setting up a segmentation algorithm, in which a general U-Net approach will serve as a baseline and will be compared with the mapping results of additional algorithms initially applied to autonomous driving. We propose to train the U-Net using labeled training dataset of avalanche outlines from Switzerland, Norway and Greenland. Due to the lack of training and validation data from Austria, we plan to compile the first avalanche archive for Austria. Meteorological variables, e.g., precipitation or wind, are highly important for the release of avalanches. In a completely new approach, we will therefore consider weather station data or outputs of numerical weather models in the learning-based algorithm to improve the detection performance. The mapping results in Austria will be complemented with pointwise field measurements of the MOLISENS platform and the RIEGL VZ-6000 terrestrial laser scanner.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123317420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shelf-incised valleys and other prominent meso-scale structures such as reefs and sinkholes have a great potential for the discrimination of benthic habitat groups. Here, we investigate shelf-incised valleys as a mesophotic habitat, by focusing on their geomorphological control in defining distinct habitats in comparison with the flat surrounding area. The study was based on the integration of high-resolution bathymetry data (multibeam echosounder), video imaging, and physical-chemical parameters of the water column. Habitat mapping was conducted using object-based image analysis segmentation and clustering. Principal Component Analysis was used to assess the variables associated with habitat distribution at each morphological region of the valleys. Bathymetric data revealed the presence of 5 shelf-incised valleys and 5 seabed classes were defined as carbonate crusts, Rhodoliths (3 distinct classes) and unconsolidated sediments. A comprehensive habitat map with 17 classes was produced, and 13 are associated with valley´s relief. Extensive rhodolith beds were mapped in the valley flanks/bottom and in the flat areas. Shelf-incised valleys are prominent morphological features that add complexity to the seascape, contrasting with the flat relief that dominates the seascape. The seabed footage obtained in the valleys revealed that their heterogeneous, complex and irregular topography harbors a great diversity of epibionts, such as scleractinian corals, coralline algae, sponges and bryozoans. Most of the variability in the dataset is correlated with salinity, temperature and carbonate sediments, which seem to be the most influential variables over the biological assemblage, together with water depth and seabed slope. Shelf-incised valleys, similarly to submarine canyons, can define a complex mesophotic habitat and sustain distinct biodiversity, and even form mesophotic reefs. These features are the legacy of Quaternary sea-level changes and should be further investigated as important mesophotic habitats.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115323369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to their low elevation above sea level, barrier islands are environments susceptible to drastic morphological changes depending on the meteo-oceanographic conditions to which they are subjected. This work presents the morphological changes between 1985 and 2021 in “Restinga da Marambaia”—a 40 km long barrier island on Brazil’s Southeastern coast. One hundred thirty-four scenes from the Landsat collection were processed, enabling the quantification of the barrier island area. Additionally, the rates of change in the position of the shorelines facing the Atlantic Ocean, Sepetiba Bay, and Marambaia Bay were computed. The barrier island’s total area and the central sector’s width present significant seasonal variability, which is maximum during the austral fall and winter seasons. On the shores facing the Atlantic Ocean and Sepetiba Bay, it is noted that the central and far eastern sectors show an erosional trend. In contrast, the coastline is more stable on the shore facing Marambaia Bay. The seasonal variations of the barrier island area occur during a period of low rainfall and more energetic waves associated with local winds, which produce coastal currents, transporting the available sediments.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114487847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Daniel, Damien Pham Van Bang","doi":"10.3389/frsen.2023.1125898","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3389/frsen.2023.1125898","url":null,"abstract":"The identification of bedforms has an important role in the study of seafloor morphology. The presence of these dynamic structures on the seafloor represents a hazard for navigation. They also influence the hydrodynamic simulation models used in the context, for example, of coastal flooding. Generally, MultiBeam EchoSounders (MBES) are used to survey these bedforms. Unfortunately, the coverage of the MBES is limited to small areas per survey. Therefore, the analysis of large areas of interest (like navigation channels) requires the integration of different datasets acquired over overlapping areas at different times. The presence of spatial and temporal inconsistencies between these datasets may significantly affect the study of bedforms, which are subject to many natural processes (e.g., Tides; flow). This paper proposes a novel approach to integrate multisource bathymetric datasets to study bedforms. The proposed approach is based on consolidating multisource datasets and applying the Empirical Bayesian Kriging interpolation for the creation of a multisource Digital Bathymetric Model (DBM). It has been designed to be adapted for estuarine areas with a high dynamism of the seafloor, characteristic of the fluvio-marine regime of the Estuary of the Saint-Lawrence River. This area is distinguished by a high tidal cycle and the presence of fields of dunes. The study involves MBES data that was acquired daily over a field of dunes in this area over the span of 4 days for the purpose of monitoring the morphology and migration of dunes. The proposed approach performs well with a resulting surface with a reduced error relative to the original data compared to existing approaches and the conservation of the dune shape through the integration of the data sets despite the highly dynamic fluvio-marine environments.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124668994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding spatial patterns of burn severity and its underlying controlling factors is essential for managing the forests affected and reducing future fire risks; however, this has not been well understood. Here, we formulated two research questions: 1) What were the most important factors characterizing the patterns of burn severity in the CT2 fire? 2) Were burn severity measures from passive and active optical remote sensing sensors providing consistent views of fire damage? To address these questions, we used multitemporal Landsat- and lidar-based burn severity measures, i.e., relativized differenced Normalized Burn Ratio (RdNBR) and relativized differenced Mean Tree Height (RdMTH). A random forest approach was used to identify key drivers in characterizing spatial variability of burn severity, and the partial dependence of each explanatory variable was further evaluated. We found that pre-fire vegetation structure and topography both play significant roles in characterizing heterogeneous mixed burn severity patterns in the CT2 fire. Mean tree height, elevation, and topographic position emerged as key factors in explaining burn severity variation. We observed generally consistent spatial patterns from Landsat- and lidar-based burn severity measures. However, vegetation type and structure-dependent relations between RdNBR and RdMTH caused locally inconsistent burn severity patterns, particularly in high RdNBR regions. Our study highlights the important roles of pre-fire vegetation structure and topography in understanding burn severity patterns and urges to integrate both spectral and structural changes to fully map and understand fire impacts on forest ecosystems.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125714939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These observations were acquired off the east coast of the United States during both winter and summer 2020 and 2021 when the HSRL-2 was deployed on the NASA LaRC King Air aircraft. During 20 of 63 total flight days, particularly on days with cold air outbreaks, linear particulate depolarization at 532 nm exceeded 0.15–0.20 within the lowest several hundred meters of the atmosphere, indicating that these particles were non-spherical. Higher values of linear depolarization typically were measured at 355 nm and lower values were measured at 1,064 nm. Several lines of evidence suggest that these non-spherical particles were sea salt including aerosol extinction/backscatter ratio (“lidar ratio”) values of 20–25 sr measured at both 355 and 532 nm by the HSRL-2, higher values of particulate depolarization measured at low (< 60%) relative humidity, coincident airborne in situ size and composition measurements, and aerosol transport simulations. The elevated aerosol depolarization values were not correlated with wind speed but were correlated with salt mass fraction and effective radius of the aerosol when the relative humidity was below 60%. HSRL-2 measured median particulate extinction values of about 20 Mm−1 at 532 nm associated with these non-spherical sea salt particles and found that the aerosol optical depth (AOD) contributed by these particles remained small (0.03–0.04) but represented on average about 30%–40% of the total column AOD. Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) spaceborne lidar aerosol measurements during several cold air outbreaks and CALIOP retrievals of column aerosol lidar ratio using column AOD constraints suggest that CALIOP operational aerosol algorithms can misclassify these aerosols as dusty marine rather than marine aerosols. Such misclassification leads to ∼40–50% overestimates in the assumed lidar ratio and in subsequent retrievals of aerosol optical depth and aerosol extinction.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132003504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two Autonomous Multichannel Acoustic Recorders (AMARs) moored about 10 m above the seabed were deployed in the austral summer of 2018 and recovered 1 year later. The northern AMAR (A3) was located on the Pacific-Antarctic Ridge at 63.7°S and the southern AMAR (A1) at 73.1°S on the Iselin Bank, part of the continental slope of the Ross Sea. Sperm whale echolocation signals were detected using signal processing scripts and validated by visual inspection of spectrograms. Our results demonstrate that sperm whales are present in the Ross Sea region year-round. At A1, sperm whale vocalisations were detected in every month between February and November, but absent in December and January. Whales were detected most often in February with an average of 0.310 detections per hour. Sperm whale vocalisations were detected at station A3 in every month except February when we had no observations. Our results contrast to a paucity of reported sightings of sperm whales from fishing and research vessels in the Ross Sea region between December and February. Probabilities of detecting sperm whales at A3 were on average 14.2 times higher than at A1 for the same month and monthly mean detections per hour were an average of 74.4 times higher at A3 than A1. At A1, we found a significant preference for day-time foraging rather than during the night or nautical twilight. In contrast, at A3, no clear day/dusk/night/dawn differences in sperm whale occurrence were found. Low sea-ice concentration (< 80%) and open water within ∼50 km were necessary but not sufficient conditions for higher detection rates of sperm whales (>0.1 detections per hour). Overall, our research provides baseline information on sperm whale occurrence and establishes a method to track long-term change to help evaluate the conservation value of the Ross Sea region Marine Protected Area.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129559921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
