Flood dynamics in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta from Earth observations

This study analysed flood dynamics in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta (VMD) from 2001 to 2023, using Terra MODIS MOD09A1 remotely sensed imagery data on the Google Earth Engine platform. The workflow includes data collection, preprocessing, flood extraction, and analysis of flood dynamics. We used the R programming language to analyse flood extent, duration, distribution, and...

Historical drought and its trend in South Asia: Spatial and temporal analysis 2000-2020

Every year, South Asian countries suffer from declining agricultural outputs due to climate extremes such as floods and droughts. Recurrent droughts have depressed rural economies and enhanced widespread hunger and human migration to South Asian cities (Miyan, 2015). Due to climatic changes, the region is projected to experience rising temperatures and more frequent extreme weather...
