Interannual Variation of the Surface Temperature of Tropical Forests from Satellite Observations
Advances in Meteorology, 2016 Land surface temperatures (LSTs) within tropical forests contribute to climate variations. However, observational data are very limited in such regions. This study used passive microwave remote sensing data from the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I)

DOWNSCALING OF SMAP SOIL MOISTURE PRODUCT BY DATA FUSION WITH VIIRS LST/EVI PRODUCT [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2021 Soil moisture is an essential variable of environment and climate change, which affects the energy and water exchange between soil and atmosphere. The estimation of soil moisture is thus very important in geoscience, while at same time also challenging ...
