- Abstract:
- ... Remote sensing for precision agriculture has been strongly fostered by the launches of the European Space Agency Sentinel-2 optical imaging constellation, enabling both academic and private services for redirecting farmers towards a more productive and sustainable management of the agroecosystems. As well as the freely and open access policy adopted by the European Space Agency (ESA), software and ...

Although some glaciers have been found to be surging, little is known about surging glaciers on the Tibetan Plateau (TP), especially the Central and Northern TP. Here, we found a surging glacier (GLIMS ID: G085885E34389N) on the Zangser Kangri ice field (ZK), Central TP, by means of the digital elevati ...
