Synoptic classification of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer aerosols over Israel [PDF]
The origins and variety of aerosols in Israel are strongly influenced by synoptic conditions as well as other variables. Days affected by a weak Persian trough system are characterized by coarse aerosols from North Africa, which contain mainly mineral dust aerosols, whereas days affected by the Red Sea trough with an eastern axis are characterized by ...

Internal wave detection using the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [PDF]
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), with its combined attributes of fine spatial resolution, large swath area, and near‐daily global coverage, has for the first time allowed sunglint (the near‐specular reflectance pattern of sunlight off the ocean surface) to be used to analyze and survey high‐frequency nonlinear internal ...

Spatial distribution of dust's optical properties over the Sahara and Asia inferred from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer [PDF]
There is great uncertainty regarding the role of mineral dust aerosols in Earth's climate system. One reason for this uncertainty is that the optical properties of mineral dust, such as its single scattering albedo (the ratio of scattering to total ...

SWCTI: Surface Water Content Temperature Index for Assessment of Surface Soil Moisture Status
The vegetation supply water index (VSWI = NDVI/LST) is an effective metric estimating soil moisture in areas with moderate to dense vegetation cover. However, the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) exhibits a long water stress lag and the land
