Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Agricultural remote sensing technology plays a crucial role in modern agriculture, especially in identifying and monitoring key elements of agricultural land including farmland, grassland and etc.. By utilizing remote sensing data, we can effectively classify, monitor, and manage agricultural land to enhance its yield and quality. Map** and analyzing the essential elements of agricultural land is an important task, including soil types, vegetation cover, water resource distribution, climate variance, etc. By conducting remote sensing monitoring and map** of agricultural land, precision agricultural management can be achieved, enhancing land utilization efficiency while reducing resource waste and environmental pollution. Moreover, it can provide scientific basis for agricultural decision-making, assisting farmers in formulating more rational planting plans to improve agricultural production stability and sustainability. In summary, excavate immense potential and promising prospects in map** key elements of farmland.

Therefore, to better excavate immense potential and promising prospects in key elements of agricultural land by leveraging remote sensing technology, this Special Issue aims to invite original and innovative research on applications of multi-source remote sensing for map** essential elements of agricultural land using mathematical statistics, machine learning, and deep learning methods, or other state-of-the-art approaches.

The research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

  • Agricultural land thematic information map**;
  • Multi-sensor imagery fusion;
  • Near real-time remote sensing monitoring of plant growth
  • Water-food-energy-environment tradeoff and synergies in agricultural land supported by remote sensing;
  • Agricultural soil health diagnosis;
  • Machine learning or deep learning for near-real-time monitoring of plant growth.

The grasslands in high-latitude areas are sensitive to climate warming and drought. However, the drought stress effect on the long-term variability of grassland productivity at the continental scale still hinders our understanding. Based on aboveground net primary production (ANPP) surveys, satellite remote sensing Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and meteorological data, we comprehensively analyzed three Aridity metrics and their effect on ANPP in Eurasian grassland from 1982 to 2020. Our results showed that the ANPP had an overall uptrend from 1982 to 2020, increasing most in the Tibetan Plateau alpine steppe subregion (TPSSR). Among three Aridity indicators, vapor pressure deficit (VPD) had an overall uptrend, while the trend of Aridity and soil moisture (SM) was insignificant from 1982 to 2020. Soil drought had negative effects on ANPP for all Eurasian grassland, while the atmospheric VPD had a positive effect on ANPP for TPSSR and the Mongolian Plateau steppe subregion (MPSSR), but a negative effect for the Black Sea–Kazakhstan steppe subregion (BKSSR) which was the driest subregion. SM had been the predominant driving factor for the interannual variability of ANPP in MPSSR since 1997. The increasing VPD had facilitated grassland productivity in alpine grasslands due to its cascading effect with an increasing temperature after 2000. The cascading effects networks of climate factors—drought factors (VPD, Aridity, and SM)—ANPP (CDA–CENet) indicated that SM was the predominant driving factor of the interannual variability of ANPP in MPSSR and BKSSR, and the dominance of SM had enhanced after the year 1997. The inhibitory effect of VPD on ANPP transformed into a facilitating effect after 1997, and the facilitating effect of SM is weakening in TPSSR. Full article
