The Effects of VIIRS Detector-Level and Band-Averaged Relative Spectral Response Differences Between S-NPP and NOAA-20 on the Thermal Emissive Bands

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2019
The Joint Polar Satellite System-1 (renamed NOAA-20 after reaching the polar orbit) was successfully launched on November 18, 2017, into an afternoon orbit with a local equator crossing time of ~1:30 p.m., in the same orbital plane as the Suomi National ...

Changing NPP consumption patterns in the Holocene: From megafauna-'liberated NPP to 'ecological bankruptcy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
There have been vast changes in how net primary production (NPP) has been consumed by humans and animals through the Holocene. Here we ask: how much NPP energy may have become available following the megafauna extinctions?
