Remote sensing of vegetation dynamics in agro-ecosystems using SMAP vegetation optical depth and optical vegetation indices [PDF]
, 2020 The ESA's SMOS and the NASA's SMAP missions, launched in 2009 and 2015, respectively, are the first two missions having on-board L-band microwave sensors, which are very sensitive to the water content in soils and vegetation. Focusing on the vegetation signal at L-band, we have implemented an inversion approach for SMAP that allows deriving vegetation ...

Perspectives and insight toward solving flaws of vegetation indices [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 This perspective manuscript addressed several unsolved questions in vegetation index calculation such as the variation of the spectral fingerprint of crops and the differences in absorbance and reflectance spectral patterns of the young and mature leaves. The spectral shift is evident due to temporal and spatial variations. It means a generalized index,
