Evaluation of MODIS LAI/FPAR product Collection 6. Part 2: Validation and intercomparison [PDF]
, 2016 The aim of this paper is to assess the latest version of the MODIS LAI/FPAR product (MOD15A2H), namely Collection 6 (C6). We comprehensively evaluate this product through three approaches: validation with field measurements, intercomparison with other ...

Forward-Looking Assimilation of MODIS-Derived Snow-Covered Area into a Land Surface Model [PDF]
Journal of Hydrometeorology, 2009 Abstract Snow cover over land has a significant impact on the surface radiation budget, turbulent energy fluxes to the atmosphere, and local hydrological fluxes. For this reason, inaccuracies in the representation of snow-covered area (SCA) within a land surface model (LSM) can lead to substantial errors in both offline and coupled ...

STUDY ON SNOW COVER CHANGE BASED ON THE FUSION OF SENTINEL-2 AND MODIS IMAGES [PDF]
ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022 Snow cover is one of the features that change rapidly on the surface, and remote sensing data with high spatial and temporal resolution is an important means to monitor the dynamic changes of snow.

Comparison of MODIS and Model-Derived Snow-Covered Areas: Impact of Land Use and Solar Illumination Conditions [PDF]
Geosciences, 2020 Moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometry (MODIS) snow cover accuracy has been assessed in the past at different scales, with various approaches and in relation to the many factors influencing the remote observation of snow-covered areas (SCA). However, the challenge of fully characterizing MODIS accuracy over forest sites is still open.

Estimation of daily cloud‐free, snow‐covered areas from MODIS based on variational interpolation [PDF]
Water Resources Research, 2012 NASA's MODIS global snow‐covered area (SCA) products are one of the mission's major objectives that frequently contain cloud hindrances, which degrade their practical usability. Many techniques have been developed to mitigate the problem but with no assurance of eliminating all of the clouds.
