L-band vegetation optical depth as an indicator of plant water potential in a temperate deciduous forest stand [PDF]
Vegetation optical depth (VOD) retrieved from microwave radiometry correlates with the total amount of water in vegetation, based on theoretical and empirical evidence.

Effect of Structural Uncertainty in Passive Microwave Soil Moisture Retrieval Algorithm
Passive microwave sensors use a radiative transfer model (RTM) to retrieve soil moisture (SM) using brightness temperatures (TB) at low microwave frequencies. Vegetation optical depth (VOD) is a key input to the RTM. Retrieval algorithms can analytically

Interannual Variations of Vegetation Optical Depth are Due to Both Water Stress and Biomass Changes
Microwave radiometry can be used to measure vegetation water content through vegetation optical depth (VOD). VOD can vary due to changes in water stress alone, but also scales with aboveground biomass.

Assimilation of vegetation optical depth retrievals from passive microwave radiometry [PDF]
Vegetation optical depth (VOD) retrievals from passive microwave sensors provide analog estimates of above-ground canopy biomass. This study presents the development and analysis of assimilating VOD retrievals from X-, C-, and L-band passive microwave ...

Monitoring post-fire recovery of various vegetation biomes using multi-wavelength satellite remote sensing [PDF]
Anthropogenic climate change is now considered to be one of the main factors causing an increase in both the frequency and severity of wildfires. These fires are prone to release substantial quantities of CO2 into the atmosphere and to endanger natural ...
