Land degradation (LD) and desertification (DS) are a sensitive global issue including southern and south-eastern Europe, which is severely affected by climate change. In this study, a state-of-the-art approach for assessing the intensity of LD and DS processes using remote-sensing-derived indicators within a GIS environment was proposed. The analys...
Hail is one of the dangerous meteorological phenomena facing society. The present study aims to analyse remote sensing methods for detecting and assessing hailstorm damage on agricultural crops. The event used as a case study occurred on 20 July 2020 within Traian commune/Administrative Territorial Units, north of Baragan Plain. The analysis was pe...
Hail is one of the dangerous meteorological phenomena facing society. The present study aims to analyze the hail event from 20 July 2020, which affected the villages of Urleasca, Traian, Silistraru and Căldăruşa from the Traian commune, Baragan Plain. The analysis was performed on agricultural lands, using satellite images in the optical domain: Se...
This paper will assess the sensitivity of soil moisture anomaly (SMA) obtained from the Soil water index (SWI) product Metop ASCAT, to identify drought in Romania. The SWI data were converted from relative values (%) to absolute values (m3 m−3) using the soil porosity method. The conversion results (SM) were validated using soil moisture in situ me...
The mechanisms of regional climate extremes and their changes in a transient climate are a real concern in climate research. Moreover, mainly in the Northern Hemisphere these became increasingly threatening in the last years, presenting regionally, higher intensity, persistence and in some cases increased frequency.
This paper investigates modeling...
The aim of this study is to analyze the performance of the Drought Severity Index (DSI) in Romania and its validation based on other data sources (meteorological data, soil moisture content (SMC), agricultural production). Also, it is to assess the drought based on a multi-temporal analysis and trends of the DSI obtained from Terra MODIS satellite...
Drought is one of the most significant extreme event facing the world, affecting the society and the environment. Located in SE Romania, Dobrogea Region is characterized by a temperate climate with strong continental influences, being affected by drought episodes which cause significant damages and economic costs over extensive agricultural areas....
