Unlocking the Potential of Remote Sensing in Wind Erosion Studies: A Review and Outlook for Future Directions

Remote sensing (RS) has revolutionized field data collection processes and provided timely spatially consistent acquisition of on the terrestrial landscape properties. This research paper investigates relationship between Wind Erosion (WE) Sensing techniques. By examining, analyzing, reviewing recent studies utilizing RS, we underscore importance wind erosion by exploring indicators that influence detection, evaluation, modeling erosion. Furthermore, it identifies gaps particularly in soil erodibility estimation, moisture monitoring, surface roughness assessment using RS. Overall, this enhances our understanding WE RS offers insights into future directions. To conduct study, employed a two-fold approach. First, utilized non-systematic review approach accessing Global Applications Soil Modelling Tracker (GASEMT) database. Subsequently, conducted systematic relevant literature remote core Web Science (WoS) Additionally, VOSviewer bibliometric software to generate cooperative keyword network analysis, facilitating advancements identifying emerging areas research. With review, focused examining current state potential for mapping analyzing following modelling: (1) erodibility; (2) moisture; (3) roughness; (4) vegetation cover; (5) barriers; (6) mapping. Our study highlights widespread utilization freely available data, such as MODIS Landsat, modeling. However, also acknowledge limitations high resolution sensors due their costs. techniques offer an efficient cost-effective at various scales call more comprehensive detailed regional scales. These findings provide valuable guidance endeavors domain.
