Abstract Land surface albedo plays a critical role in climate, hydrological and biogeochemical modeling, weather forecasting. It is often assigned models satellite retrievals by climatology look‐up tables using land cover type other variables; however, there are considerable differences simulations among models, which partially result from uncertainty obsolete climatology. Therefore, this study introduces new global 500 m daily blue‐sky data set under both actual snow‐free conditions...
Mapping soil organic carbon (SOC) accurately is essential for sustainable resource management. Hyperspectral data, a vital tool SOC mapping, obtained through both laboratory and satellite-based sources. While data limited to sample point monitoring, satellite hyperspectral imagery covers entire regions, albeit susceptible external environmental interference. This study, conducted in the Yuncheng Basin of Yellow River Basin, compared predictive accuracy (ASD FieldSpec4) GF-5 mapping....
A new directional canopy emissivity model (CE-P) based on spectral invariants is proposed in this paper. First, we prove the existence of invariant properties thermal infrared (TIR) band using a Monte Carlo model. Based it, equation derived from perspective absorption. In expression, single-scattering and multiscattering effects are separated analytically TIR band. We find that overall contribution multiple scatterings less than 0.005 when component emissivities over 0.90, decreases with...
The development of efficient and systematic groundbased spatial sampling strategies is critical for the validation medium-resolution satellite-derived leaf area index (LAI) products, particularly over heterogeneous land surfaces.

To capture variability across site, SSVIP designed 1) stratify nonhomogeneous into zones with minimum within-class...
The adjacency effect and non-uniform responses complicate the precise delimitation of surface support remote sensing data their derived products. Thus, modeling spatial response characteristics (SRCs) prior to using information has become important. A point spread function (PSF) is typically used describe SRCs observation cells from sensors always estimated in a laboratory before sensor launched. However, research on high-order products observations remains insufficient, which an obstacle...

Mountainous areas with rugged terrains are widely distributed around the world. Remotely sensed values of fraction absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (FAPAR) suffer from effect terrain. In this study, terrain was incorporated into FAPAR model based on recollision probability (FAPAR-P), which improved in two aspects: calculating sky viewing factor to correct for diffuse total radiation, and correcting interception according slope aspect each pixel. The newly developed is called...

Albedo characterizes the radiometric interface of land surfaces, especially vegetation, and atmosphere. is a critical input to many models, such as crop growth hydrological models climate models. For extensive attention monitoring, physical albedo model for crops developed based on law energy conservation spectral invariants, which derived from prior forest model. The inputs have been efficiently physically parameterized, including dependency solar zenith/azimuth angle, fraction diffuse...
Ice albedo feedback amplifies climate change signals and thus affects the global climate. Global long-term records on sea-ice are important to characterize regional or energy budget.

In contrast to herbaceous canopies and forests, savannas are grassland ecosystems with sparsely distributed individual trees, so the canopy is spatially heterogeneous open, whereas woody cover in savannas, e.g., tree cover, adversely affects ecosystem structures functions. Studies have shown that dynamics of structure related available water, climate, human activities form porosity, leaf area index (LAI), clumping (CI). Therefore, it important identify biophysical parameters savanna...
