How accurately does L band vegetation optical depth predict aboveground biomass?
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and GeoinformationL-band Vegetation Optical Depth (L-VOD) has emerged as a critical remote sensing proxy for monitoring global aboveground biomass (AGB) dynamics. Persistent methodological ambiguities, including the absence of standardized protocols for deriving AGB from ...

Assessing the sensitivity of multi-frequency passive microwave vegetation optical depth to vegetation properties [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2023 Vegetation attenuates the microwave emission from the land surface. The strength of this attenuation is quantified in models in terms of the parameter vegetation optical depth (VOD) and is influenced by the vegetation mass, structure, water content, and ...
