Temporal Vine Water Status Modeling Through Machine Learning Ensemble Technique and Sentinel-2 Multispectral Images Under Semi-Arid Conditions

Vincenzo Giannico, Simone Pietro Garofalo, Luca Brillante, Pietro Sciusco et autres

New challenges will be experienced by the agriculture sector in the near future, especially due to the effects of climate change. For example, rising temperatures could result in increased evapotranspiration demand, causing difficulties in the management of irrigation practices. Generally, an important …

Overlooked cooling effects of albedo in terrestrial ecosystems

Jiquan Chen, Cheyenne Lei, Housen Chu, Xianglan Li et autres

Abstract Radiative forcing (RF) resulting from changes in surface albedo is increasingly recognized as a significant driver of global climate change but has not been adequately estimated, including by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessment reports, compared with other warming agents. …

Albedo of crops as a nature-based climate solution to global warming

Cheyenne Lei, Jiquan Chen, Inés Ibáñez, Pietro Sciusco et autres

Abstract Surface albedo can affect the energy budget and subsequently cause localized warming or cooling of the climate. When we convert a substantial portion of lands to agriculture, land surface properties are consequently altered, including albedo. Through crop selection and management, one …

Mapping irrigated crops through Sentinel 2 satellite images: evidences from Southern Italy

Raffaella Matarrese, Ivan Portoghese, Laura Mirra, Giacomo Giannoccaro et autres

The sustainability of irrigated water management is hampered by a lack of precise and timely information about irrigated crops and their applied water volumes. This is particularly crucial for arid and semi-arid regions of Mediterranean areas where water withdrawals (mostly from groundwater) …

Albedo changes caused by future urbanization contribute to global warming

Pietro Sciusco, Tong Jiao, Sarah Féron, Cheyenne Lei et autres

The replacement of natural lands with urban structures has multiple environmental consequences, yet little is known about the magnitude and extent of albedo-induced warming contributions from urbanization at the global scale in the past and future. Here, we apply an empirical approach …

Land Use Hotspots of the Two Largest Landlocked Countries: Kazakhstan and Mongolia

Jing Yuan, Jiquan Chen, Pietro Sciusco, Venkatesh Kolluru et autres

As the two largest landlocked countries, Kazakhstan and Mongolia have similar biophysical conditions and socioeconomic roots in the former Soviet Union. Our objective is to investigate the direction, extent, and spatial variation of land cover change at three administrative levels over three …

Albedo-Induced Global Warming Impact at Multiple Temporal Scales within an Upper Midwest USA Watershed

Pietro Sciusco, Jiquan Chen, Vincenzo Giannico, Michael Abraha et autres

Land surface albedo is a significant regulator of climate. Changes in land use worldwide have greatly reshaped landscapes in the recent decades. Deforestation, agricultural development, and urban expansion alter land surface albedo, each with unique influences on shortwave radiative forcing and global …

Albedo-induced global warming impact of Conservation Reserve Program grasslands converted to annual and perennial bioenergy crops

Michael Abraha, Jiquan Chen, Stephen K. Hamilton, Pietro Sciusco et autres

Abstract Climate benefit assessments of bioenergy crops often focus on biogeochemical impacts, paying little if any attention to biogeophysical impacts. However, land conversions required for large-scale bioenergy crop production are substantial and may directly affect the climate by altering surface energy balance. …

Will land use land cover change drive atmospheric conditions to become more conducive to wildfires in the United States?

Shiyuan Zhong, Ting Wang, Pietro Sciusco, Meicheng Shen et autres

Abstract The increase in wildfire risk in the United States in recent decades has been linked to rapid growth of the wildland‐urban interface and to changing climate. While there have been numerous studies on wildfires and climate change, few have separately assessed …
