Glacial Lake Mapping Using Remote Sensing Geo-Foundation Model
--
doi.org/10.1016/j.jag.2025.104 <-- shared paper
--
HIGHLIGHTS:
• Proposed U-ViT model based on Prithvi GFM for multi-sensor glacial lake mapping.
• Achieved an F1 score of 0.894 on Sentinel-1&2, surpassing CNNs scoring below 0.8.
• Maintains strong performance with 50% less training data, proving efficiency.
• Excels in detecting small lakes (<0.01km²) and handling clouds and complex terrains..."

The web version of Mastodon is really awfully slow. Right now typing this it takes a second or two before the characters are shown in the textbox. Clicking the Notifications or Home link freezes everything for 5-10 seconds before things slowly load. I guess this is Javascript's fault too. We should never have allowed our tools to become web based. But few tools are as laggy as Mastodon though.

The fast-eroding cliffs at #Happisburgh, Norfolk exhibit splendid exposures of a "tripartite" (like neapolitan ice cream) Quaternary #geological succession - massive brown/grey #glacial till at the base, overlain by dark, laminated pro-glacial lake muds, then by shallow marine sands.
Two photos show infilled channels in the upper surface of the till, and one shows where the upper two units have been eroded back, exposing the upper surface of the half million year old Happisburgh Till Member.
