Synoptic classification of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer aerosols over Israel [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2009 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 ...

Spatial distribution of dust's optical properties over the Sahara and Asia inferred from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2013 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
Sensors, 2018 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

Interannual Spatiotemporal Variations of Land Surface Temperature in China From 2003 to 2018
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021 Land surface temperature (LST) is a comprehensive embodiment of surface energy balance and land surface processes. The spatial and temporal variation of LST is of great significance for studying surface characteristics and climate change.

Mapping Extent Dynamics of Small Lakes Using Downscaling MODIS Surface Reflectance
Remote Sensing, 2017 Lake extent is an indicator of water capacity as well as the aquatic ecological and environmental conditions. Due to the small sizes and rapid water dynamics, monitoring the extent of small lakes fluctuating between 2.5 and 30 km2 require observations ...
