Ordinary kriging (OK) is a popular interpolation method for its ability to simultaneously minimize error variance and deliver statistically optimal and unbiased predictions. In this work, the adaptive moving window kriging with K-means clustering (AMWKK)...

In recent decades, an important number of regional and global digital elevation models (DEMs) have been released publicly. As a consequence, researchers need to choose between several of these models to perform their studies and to use these DEMs as thir...

In hostile environments, engine damage is of particular concern since the engine is the only component to generate thrust that affects survivability. For an aircraft suffering thrust failure, the forced landing sites should be identified within the glidi...

A distance-independent background light estimation method is proposed for underwater overhead images. The method addresses the challenge of the absence of the farthest point in underwater overhead images by adopting a global perspective to select the opt...

Current streamflow timing metrics, such as the center of volume, or COV, use flow days, which are days at which a specific total streamflow volume, such as 50% for COV, has passed a given point. These metrics have been used as indicators for changes in t...
