InSAR-measured permafrost degradation of palsa peatlands in northern Sweden (2024)
Journal Article
Valman, S., Siewert, M. B., Boyd, D., Ledger, M., Gee, D., De La Barreda-Bautista, B., …Sjögersten, S. (2024). InSAR-measured permafrost degradation of palsa peatlands in northern Sweden. Cryosphere, 18(4), 1773-1790. https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-18-1773-2024

Climate warming is degrading palsa peatlands across the circumpolar permafrost region. Permafrost degradation may lead to ecosystem collapse and potentially strong climate feedbacks, as this ecosystem is an important carbon store and can transition t...

Monitoring holopelagic Sargassum spp. along the Mexican Caribbean coast: understanding and addressing user requirements for satellite remote sensing (2023)
Journal Article
de la Barreda-Bautista, B., Metcalfe, S. E., Smith, G., Sjögersten, S., Boyd, D. S., Cerdeira-Estrada, S., …Foody, G. (2023). Monitoring holopelagic Sargassum spp. along the Mexican Caribbean coast: understanding and addressing user requirements for satellite remote sensing. Frontiers in Marine Science, 10, Article 1166000. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2023.1166000

Massive influxes of holopelagic Sargassum spp. (Sargassum natans and S. fluitans) have been causing major economic, environmental and ecological problems along the Caribbean coast of Mexico. Predicting the arrival of the sargassum as an aid to addres...

Towards a Monitoring Approach for Understanding Permafrost Degradation and Linked Subsidence in Arctic Peatlands (2022)
Journal Article
de la Barreda-Bautista, B., Boyd, D. S., Ledger, M., Siewert, M. B., Chandler, C., Bradley, A. V., …Sjögersten, S. (2022). Towards a Monitoring Approach for Understanding Permafrost Degradation and Linked Subsidence in Arctic Peatlands. Remote Sensing, 14(3), Article 444. https://doi.org/10.3390/rs14030444

Permafrost thaw resulting from climate warming is threatening to release carbon from high latitude peatlands. The aim of this research was to determine subsidence rates linked to permafrost thaw in sub-Arctic peatlands in Sweden using historical orth...

Remote Monitoring of Ground Motion Hazards in High Mountain Terrain Using InSAR: A Case Study of the Lake Sarez Area, Tajikistan (2021)
Journal Article
Grebby, S., Sowter, A., Gee, D., Athab, A., De la Barreda-Bautista, B., Girindran, R., & Marsh, S. (2021). Remote Monitoring of Ground Motion Hazards in High Mountain Terrain Using InSAR: A Case Study of the Lake Sarez Area, Tajikistan. Applied Sciences, 11(18), Article 8738. https://doi.org/10.3390/app11188738

High mountain terrains, with steep slopes and deep valleys, are generally challenging areas to monitor using satellite earth observation techniques since the terrain creates perspective distortions and differences in illumination that can occlude or...
