Integration of Multispectral Satellite data with Ensemble Machine Learning Models for Wetland Classification: a new Ramsar Site in Central India
Abstract: For biodiversity conservation, several wetlands in India have been classified as Ramsar sites, and Sirpur Lake is a recent addition to the list. The objective of this paper is to use Sentinel optical data with 10-meter resolution to prepare a robust and accurate classified map which will be crucial for further analysis. The data on thirteen spectral bands along with four essential spectral indices, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized …

Study of a Western Disturbance of 2023 Using Satellite-Based Observation, Reanalysis Data, and Numerical Simulation
Abstract: Western Disturbances (WDs) are synoptic-scale, extratropical storm systems that influence winter precipitation across northwest India. This study focuses on a specific WD event that occurred from 24– 25 March 2023, affecting Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and Punjab. The analysis integrates satellite observations, ERA-5 reanalysis data, and simulations from the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to evaluate the model's performance. The novelty of this study lies in its …

AI and IoT for Precision Farming: Transforming Indian Agriculture
Abstract: Agriculture plays a crucial role in the global economy with the exponential rise in population. There is a parallel increase in the demand for food and employment exerting pressure on conventional farming methods. These traditional techniques are often inadequate in meeting current agricultural demands. Consequently, automation in agriculture has gained significant attention as an evolving field. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into agricultural processes has led to a transformative …
