Retrieval of canopy height using moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) data
article i nfo In this study we use the 500 m Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) product to develop multivariate linear regression models that estimate canopy heights over study sites at Howland Forest, Maine, Harvard Forest, Massachusetts and La Selva Forest, Costa Rica using (1)

Aerosol Data Sources and Their Roles within PARAGON [PDF]
We briefly but systematically review major sources of aerosol data, emphasizing suites of measurements that seem most likely to contribute to assessments of global aerosol climate forcing. The strengths and limitations of existing satellite, surface, and

Scientific Objectives, Measurement Needs, and Challenges Motivating the PARAGON Aerosol Initiative [PDF]
Aerosols are involved in a complex set of processes that operate across many spatial and temporal scales. Understanding these processes, and ensuring their accurate representation in models of transport, radiation transfer, and climate, requires ...

Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer on Terra: limitations for ocean color applications [PDF]
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) is currently flying on both the Terra and Aqua satellite platforms. The Ocean Biology Processing Group (OBPG) at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center is producing operational ocean color products from the MODIS-Aqua sensor; however, documented uncertainties and instabilities in the prelaunch and on ...

A NEW SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL FUSION MODEL [PDF]
As Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) has a tradeoff between the high temporal resolution and high spatial resolution, this paper proposed a spatial and temporal model with auto-regression ...
