AbstractAs important components of global commons, environmental changes in polar regions are crucial to the local and global sustainability. However, they have received little attention in the current framework of sustainable development goals (SDGs). This study examines the impacts of climate change in polar regions, emphasizing the interconnectedness of these areas with other parts of the global system.

1. IntroductionThe polar region plays a key role in the climatology, hydrology, and energy cycles of our planet. Due to the harsh natural conditions in polar regions, there are significant obstacles to obtaining data in situ. Satellite remote sensing technology, as a powerful tool, has been widely applied in polar research, particularly with the all-day, all-weather observation capability of spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR).

Abstract:With the rapid development of Earth system science, a new understanding of the complete Earth system has highlighted the crucial importance of integrated observations, especially in research involving large-scale geoscience phenomena. As an active sensor with all-time and all-weather capabilities, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has been widely used in recent decades for Earth observation.

1. IntroductionUnderground irrigation systems in Afghanistan and Central Asia are known as “Kariz”. In Xinjiang, China, it is called “karez” in the Uyghur language. In “Shiji” (Records of the Grand Historian of China), it is recorded as “Jingqu” (well and canal). In Persian, it is referred to as “Kanatz-qanat”, while in Iran, it is now called “Qanat” [1]. In Pakistan, it is known as “Karezes”, while in North Africa, it is referred to as “Foggaras”.
