Monitoring vegetation dynamics from lunar orbiting satellites
(2018-02-27)FUNCTION STATEMENT: Our analyses are based on data from Terra MISR/MODIS, Aqua MODIS, DSCIVR EPIC and EO-1 Hyperion sensors. Science questions as identified in NASA’s Science Plan: Detect and predict changes in Earth’s ... -
Earth system data record from DSCOVR EPIC observations: product description and analyses
(2018-12-13)The NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) onboard NOAA's Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) mission was launched on February 11, 2015 to the Sun-Earth Lagrangian L1 point where it began to collect radiance ... -
Generating global products of LAI and FPAR from SNPP-VIIRS data: theoretical background and implementation
Leaf area index (LAI) and fraction of photosynthetically active radiation (FPAR) absorbed by vegetation have been successfully generated from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data since early 2000. ... -
Post-drought decline of the Amazon carbon sink
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018-08-09)Amazon forests have experienced frequent and severe droughts in the past two decades. However, little is known about the large-scale legacy of droughts on carbon stocks and dynamics of forests. Using systematic sampling ... -
Earth observations from DSCOVR EPIC instrument
(Amer Meteorological Soc, 2018-09-01)The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) spacecraft was launched on 11 February 2015 and in June 2015 achieved its orbit at the first Lagrange point (L1), 1.5 million ... -
An interplay between photons, canopy structure, and recollision probability: a review of the spectral invariants theory of 3D canopy radiative transfer processes
(MDPI, 2018-11-01)Earth observations collected by remote sensors provide unique information to our ever-growing knowledge of the terrestrial biosphere. Yet, retrieving information from remote sensing data requires sophisticated processing ... -
Implications of whole-disc DSCOVR EPIC spectral observations for estimating Earth's spectral reflectivity based on low-earth-orbiting and geostationary observations
(MDPI, 2018-10-01)Earth’s reflectivity is among the key parameters of climate research. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)’s Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) onboard National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ... -
Influence of leaf specular reflection on canopy radiative regime using an improved version of the stochastic radiative transfer model
(MDPI, 2018-10-01)Interpreting remotely-sensed data requires realistic, but simple, models of radiative transfer that occurs within a vegetation canopy. In this paper, an improved version of the stochastic radiative transfer model (SRTM) ...
