Mapping Extent Dynamics of Small Lakes Using Downscaling MODIS Surface Reflectance

open access: yesRemote 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 ...

Total Suspended Matter Distribution in the Hooghly River Estuary and the Sundarbans: A Remote Sensing Approach

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
Monitoring of total suspended matter (TSM) concentration in the coastal waters is vital for water quality monitoring and coastal management. In this study, TSM over the highly dynamic Hooghly estuary region is derived using moderate resolution imaging ...

Assessment of the potential of MERIS near-infrared water vapour products to correct ASAR interferometric measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Atmospheric water vapour is a major limitation for high precision Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) applications due to its significant impact on microwave signals.

Algorithms for Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer cloud-free image compositing [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Remote Sensing, 2013
The presence of clouds is the biggest obstacle in the investigation of land cover, and many techniques have been developed to detect clouds. However, few indicators have been proposed for the detection of cloud-free conditions. To address this, we propose two indicators for use in compositing 8-day cloud-free images: the B 1/7 ratio is the ratio ...

Retrieval of the optical properties of tropospheric aerosols over Athens, Greece combining a 6-wavelength Raman-lidar and the CALIPSO VIS-NIR lidar system: Case-study analysis of a Saharan dust intrusion over the Eastern Mediterranean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) 6-wavelength (355, 387, 407, 532, 607 and 1064 nm) Raman lidar system has been used to derive the aerosol optical properties (e.g. the lidar ratio, the aerosol backscatter and extinction profile) and the

A practical topographic correction method for improving Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer gross primary productivity estimation over mountainous areas

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021
Time-series Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) gross primary productivity (GPP) has been served as an effective tool to assess the terrestrial carbon budget for the entire globe since 2000.

Retrieving surface parameters for climate models from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)‐Multiangle Imaging Spectroradiometer (MISR) albedo products [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2007
We present a computer‐efficient software package enabling us to assimilate operational remote‐sensing flux products into a state‐of‐the‐art two‐stream radiation transfer scheme suitable for climate models. This package implements the adjoint and Hessian codes, generated using automatic differentiation techniques, of a cost function balancing (1) the ...

Design of a Novel Spectral Albedometer for Validating the MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer Spectral Albedo Product

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Land surface shortwave broadband albedo is a key parameter in general circulation models and surface energy budget models. Multispectral satellite data are typically used to generate broadband albedo products in a three-step process: atmospheric ...
