Thus, effectively monitoring the water quality of coastal outfalls is the key to protecting the ecological environment. Satellite remote sensing provides an attractive way to monitor sewage discharge. Selecting the coastal areas of Zhejiang Province, China, as an example, this study proposes an innovative method for automatically detecting suspected sewage discharge from coastal outfalls based on high spatial resolution satellite imageries from Sentinel-2. According to the accumulated in situ observations, we established a training dataset of water spectra covering various optical water types from satellite-retrieved remote sensing reflectance (Rrs). Based on the clustering results from unsupervised classification and different spectral indices, a random forest (RF) classification model was established for the optical water type classification and detection of suspected sewage. The final classification covers 14 optical water types, with type 12 and type 14 corresponding to the high eutrophication water type and suspected sewage water type, respectively. The classification result of model training datasets exhibited high accuracy with only one misclassified sample. This model was evaluated by historical sewage discharge events that were verified by on-site observations and demonstrated that it could successfully recognize sewage discharge from coastal outfalls. In addition, this model has been operationally applied to automatically detect suspected sewage discharge in the coastal area of Zhejiang Province, China, and shows broad application value for coastal pollution supervision, management, and source analysis.

Decadal surface changes and displacements in Switzerland / Valentin Tertius Bickel in Journal of Geovisualization and Spatial Analysis, vol 6 n° 2 (December 2022)

Here, we demonstrate how an off-the-shelf, open-source image correlation algorithm can be combined with SwissALTI3D LiDAR-derived elevation data from different tracking periods to create country-scale surface displacement and vertical change maps of Switzerland, including Liechtenstein, with minimal computational effort. The results show that glacier displacement and ablation make up the most significant fraction of the detected surface changes in the last two decades. In addition, we identify numerous landslides and other geomorphic features, as well as manmade changes such as construction sites and landfills. All produced maps and data products are available online, free of charge.

Beyond topo-climatic predictors: Does habitats distribution and remote sensing information improve predictions of species distribution models? / Arthur Sanguet in Global ecology and conservation, vol 39 (November 2022)  

Public [article]  inGlobal ecology and conservation > vol 39 (November 2022) . - n° e02286 Titre : Beyond topo-climatic predictors: Does habitats distribution and remote sensing information improve predictions of species distribution models? Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Arthur Sanguet, Auteur ; Nicolas Wyler, Auteur ; Blaise Petitpierre, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° e02286 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] carte d'occupation du sol [Termes IGN] changement climatique [Termes IGN] distribution spatiale [Termes IGN] échantillonnage de données [Termes IGN] habitat (nature) [Termes IGN] modèle de simulation [Termes IGN] montagne [Termes IGN] pédologie locale [Termes IGN] Suisse [Termes IGN] télédétection [Termes IGN] topographie locale [Termes IGN] zone humide [Vedettes matières IGN] Ecologie forestière Résumé : (auteur) Species Distribution Models (SDM) represent a powerful tool to predict species’ habitat suitability on a landscape and fill the gap between truncated observation data and all possible locations. SDMs have been widely used in theoretical studies of species niches as well as in conservation applications. Here, we evaluated the impacts of predictors’ type on models’ performances and spatial predictions using 72 plant species belonging to six ecological groups at a regional scale in the area of Geneva (Switzerland). Twelve models were created using various combinations of high-resolution (25 m) explanatory variables including topography, pedology, climate, habitats and remote sensing data. Models integrating a combination of habitats and topopedo-climatic predictors had significantly higher performances, while remote sensing predictors showed low performances. Our results suggest that the number and the level of details of habitat predictors (broad or very precise) do not fundamentally affect prediction maps. However, selecting too few, overly simplified or exceedingly complex habitat predictors tend to lower models’ performances. The use of eight habitat categories complemented with eight topopedo-climatic predictors produced models with the highest performances. Ecological groups of species responded differently to models and while alpine and ruderal species have greater average performances due to a high affinity with topopedo-climatic predictors, wetlands’ species were less performant on average. These results underline the necessity of developing or having access to habitats distribution data especially in a conservation context.

Integrating Bayesian networks to forecast sea-level rise impacts on barrier island characteristics and habitat availability / Benjamin T. Gutierrez in Earth and space science, vol 9 n° 11 (November 2022)

Bayesian networks (BNs) are used to model barrier island change under different SLR scenarios that are relevant to management and policy decisions. BNs utilized here include a shoreline change model and two models of barrier island biogeomorphological evolution at different scales (50 and 5 m). These BNs were then linked to another BN to predict habitat availability for piping plovers (Charadrius melodus), a threatened shorebird reliant on beach habitats. We evaluated the performance of the two linked geomorphology BNs and further examined error rates by generating hindcasts of barrier island geomorphology and habitat availability for 2014 conditions. Geomorphology hindcasts revealed that model error declined with a greater number of known inputs, with error rates reaching 55% when multiple outputs were hindcast simultaneously. We also found that, although error in predictions of piping plover nest presence/absence increased when outputs from the geomorphology BNs were used as inputs in the piping plover habitat BN, the maximum error rate for piping plover habitat suitability in the fully-linked BNs was only 30%. Our findings suggest this approach may be useful for guiding scenario-based evaluations where known inputs can be used to constrain variables that produce higher uncertainty for morphological predictions. Overall, the approach demonstrates a way to assimilate data and model structures with uncertainty to produce forecasts to inform coastal planning and management.

Topographic descriptors on the early Dutch charts of the antipodes / Jan Tent in International journal of cartography, vol 8 n° 3 (November 2022)

The latter were intended as navigational aids and warnings for future navigators. Naming or describing a geographic feature is a method of distinguishing it from the surrounding topography. At times some topographic descriptors have been considered or interpreted as toponyms. This article explores whether there are any means of determining the difference between the two, and what may have been initially intended by the explorers who entered them on their manuscript charts. Reasons for the relevance of making such a distinction are also considered.
