Remote sensing offers key opportunities for large scale monitoring, but observation of inundation in vegetated areas is challenging due to the vegetation obstructing multispectral sensors on satellites. Several approaches have recently attempted to address this challenge. This study demonstrates a further solution based on extending surface water extent (SWE, inundation) using a novel algorithm. This algorithm uses an initial water mask (usually derived from spectral water classification) and a Probability of Depression Map derived from a LIDAR 10 m and 1 m Digital Elevation Model to extend Sentinel-2 remote sensing derived observations. Using a Probability of Depression Adaptive Threshold (PDAT), the algorithm fills gaps in the remote sensing data by growing initial remote sensing observations (seeds). The algorithm can be easily integrated into a workflow manager for full automation, using a fixed quantile probability for the seed region's PDAT. The method was tested in two contrasting study areas, the Goulburn River in Victoria and the Normanby river in Queensland (Australia), achieving precision and recall values exceeding 80 %. This compares favorably to other algorithms. The results are sensitive to morphological characteristics and elevation variation, performing better for sharply delineated water bodies. Compared to published methods, the geomorphological segmentation algorithm accommodates different water indices and vegetation types. Further development can include automatic selection of an optimal quantile probability based on zonal topographical data that could remove operator bias and further enhance adaptability and accuracy.</p>","PeriodicalId":422,"journal":{"name":"Science of the Total Environment","volume":"997 ","pages":"180180"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144811521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it faces two operational limitations: requiring specific input data unavailable from conventional agro-meteorological stations and lacking an evidence-based algorithm for upscaling instantaneous ET to daily values. This study addresses these limitations by evaluating SEB-PV performance under three conditions: (1) using measured soil moisture with in-situ meteorological equipment; (2) using gridded soil moisture products (Climate Forecast System and Soil Moisture Active Passive) with in-situ meteorological equipment; (3) using gridded soil moisture products with agro-meteorological stations' data. Seven temporal upscaling methods were compared for ET estimation in commercially-produced, micro-irrigated hazelnut (Chile) and pistachio (California) orchards. A Model Decision Making Indicator (MDMI), combining Kling-Gupta efficiency and normalized root mean square error (NRMSE), is proposed to enhance parameter optimization sensitivity. SEB-PV performance using gridded soil moisture products demonstrated comparable accuracy to configurations using measured soil moisture after parameter adjustment (MDMI values >70 for hazelnuts, NRMSE ∼ 21%; >59 for pistachios, NRMSE ∼ 29%). Transitioning from in-situ meteorological measurements to agro-meteorological stations minimally impacted hazelnut orchards but required careful consideration for pistachios. Methods that upscale instantaneous ET to daily values on the basis of net radiation performed optimally for hazelnut orchards grown in Mediterranean climatic conditions (NRMSE ∼ 15%), while meteorological inputs-based methods were preferable for semi-arid pistachio orchards (NRMSE ∼ 30%). These findings show that SEB-PV can maintain acceptable accuracy using globally available datasets, improving operational applicability through guidance for input selection and temporal upscaling tailored to orchard characteristics.</p>","PeriodicalId":422,"journal":{"name":"Science of the Total Environment","volume":"1002 ","pages":"180569"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145211181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The EIQ has been compared to other PRIs and shows strong agreement with those incorporating similar environmental compartments. Many authors report selecting the EIQ over other PRIs due to its straightforward implementation across diverse systems. We also highlight the limitations of the EIQ, including the asymmetric weighting of its components, the limited scoring system, and the high correlation with the application rate.

Arsenic, selenium, and cadmium were released from the excavated rocks as pyrite oxidation and fine granulation continued during dry-wet cycles. The amounts of arsenic and lead released during pyrite oxidation were minimized by iron-(hydr)oxides that precipitated, whereas the amounts of released selenium and cadmium, present in soluble forms, were not reduced.

Understanding the similarities and differences in pathogenicity and drug resistance among Acinetobacter strains isolated from animals, humans, and the environment through a One Health approach is essential for mitigating their infection risk. We explored the resistome and virulome of 38 Acinetobacter isolates obtained from pigs' waste, patients, wastewater, and wastewater-impacted environments, including river and coastal area which receives wastewater effluent. Hybrid genome assemblies demonstrated distinct difference in the composition and location of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Patient- and environment-associated isolates demonstrated chromosomally integrated ARGs and genes encoding efflux pumps, whereas pig waste-associated isolates exhibited a diverse range of ARG types predominantly located on plasmid replicons. Additionally, an analysis of virulence genes (VGs) across all Acinetobacter isolates revealed that VGs are more prevalent in patient- and environment-associated isolates compared to pig waste-associated isolates. Notably, a positive correlation between the number of ARGs and VGs located on the chromosome was observed in environment-associated isolates, which may imply co-selection of ARGs and VGs. Overall, this study highlights differences in the localization and co-selection of ARGs and VGs among patient-, pig waste-, and environment- associated isolates, suggesting that Acinetobacter spp. adapted to the human body tend to possess VGs and ARGs together, while those derived from animals may preferentially harbor transferable ARGs.</p>","PeriodicalId":422,"journal":{"name":"Science of the Total Environment","volume":"1002 ","pages":"180627"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145211364","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
