Sea-surface temperature measured by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)

IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2003
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the NASA Earth Observing System satellites Terra and Aqua include infrared bands that are designed for the accurate measurement of sea-surface temperature (SST). In addition to the conventional 'split-window' bands in the 10-12 /spl mu/m atmospheric window (similar in spectral properties to ...

Global monitoring of air pollution over land from the Earth Observing System-Terra Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)

, 2003
[1] Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) measurements (7 channels: 0.47-2.1 μm, 250-500 m resolutions) provide us with new insights into the characteristics of global aerosols.

Enhanced vegetation index using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometers

2012 5th International Congress on Image and Signal Processing, 2012
The enhanced vegetation index (EVI) was developed as a standard satellite vegetation product for the Terra and Aqua Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometers (MODIS). In this paper, MOD3A3, a global dataset with 1km spatial resolution and one month temporal resolution, was selected as the data source. The dynamic changes of vegetation EVI in China

Dust absorption averaged over the Sahara inferred from moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer

Applied Optics, 2008
We estimated the average dust single scattering albedo (omega(0)) over the Sahara using four years of moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer data. The method employed is based on the theory that the critical surface reflectance (rho(c)) for which the reflectance at the top-of-the-atmosphere is not influenced by the variability of dust optical ...

Analysis of the moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer contextual algorithm for small fire detection

Journal of Applied Remote Sensing, 2009
In the southeastern United States, most wildland fires are of low intensity. A substantial number of these fires cannot be detected by the MODIS contextual algorithm. To improve the accuracy of fire detection for this region, the remote-sensed characteristics of these fires have to be systematically analyzed.

Retrieval of cloud phase and crystal habit from Multiangle Imaging Spectroradiometer (MISR) and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2005
A method of retrieving cloud phase and the dominant ice crystal habit from radiances measured by the Multiangle Imaging Spectroradiometer (MISR) and the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) has been developed. The retrieval method takes advantage of the differences in the phase function of various particle shapes as a function of ...

Assessment of the Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer algorithm for retrieval of aerosol parameters over the ocean

Applied Optics, 2007
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer aerosol algorithm over the ocean derives spectral aerosol optical depth and aerosol size parameters from satellite measured radiances at the top of the atmosphere (TOA). It is based on the adding of apparent optical properties (AOPs): TOA reflectance is approximated as a linear combination of ...

Inter-calibration of the Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer and the AlongTrack Scanning Radiometer-2

International Journal of Remote Sensing, 2003
The performance of the on board calibrator for bands 1 ( , 0.66 µm), 2 ( , 0.86 µm) and 4 ( , 0.55 µm) of the Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS Terra) has been evaluated by comparison of the top-of-atmosphere (TOA) albedos measured in the three bands over a six-day period with a three-year record of TOA albedos measured in the 0.56 ...

Point-spread function of the ocean color bands of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer on Aqua

Applied Optics, 2010
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Aqua platform has nine spectral bands with center wavelengths from 412 to 870 nm that are used to produce the standard ocean color data products. Ocean scenes usually contain high contrast due to the presence of bright clouds over dark water.

Remote sensing of smoke plumes with moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer reflectance measurements

Journal of Applied Remote Sensing, 2010
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument is considered a very versatile tool in studying environmental changes. The multi-spectral sensor owns a high revisit period, a large scanning area, plus a handful of other advantages.
