Land surface temperature (LST) is a vital parameter for studying global ecological, climatic, and environmental changes. Although various LST retrieval algorithms have been proposed, including split-window (SW), dual-window (DW), three-channel (TC), dual-angle (DA) algorithms, few studies compared these using the same satellite observations. The Sea Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR) onboard Sentinel-3A provides unique opportunity to conduct this comparison owing its viewing capability...

Radiometric measurements in the Thermal Infrared (TIR) domain exhibit an angular variation over most surface types, known as Radiation Directionality (TRD) phenomenon. A primary objective of ongoing development TRD physical models is to perform a correction effects obtain comparable land temperature products. In practice, it advised handle only having limited number input parameters for purpose operational applications. The use semi-empirical kernel-driven (KDMs) appears be good tradeoff...

Frequent water quality anomalies severely affect the ecological environment, hindering protection, restoration, and sustainable use of inland freshwater ecosystems in Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 15.1. Thus, there is an urgent need to conduct real-time monitoring early warnings various anomalies. However, current remote sensing indices are aimed at only one specific anomaly event regions, which makes it difficult achieve high-precision on-orbit detection sudden complex geographical...

Forest anomalies (e.g., pests, deforestation, and fires) are increasingly frequent phenomena on Earth’s surface. Rapid detection of these is crucial for sustainable forest management development. On-orbit remote sensing multi-type using single-temporal images one the most promising methods achieving it. Nevertheless, existing anomaly rely time series image analysis or designed to detect a single type anomaly. In this study, Anomaly Comprehensive Index (FACI) proposed Sentinel-2 images....

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.

Land surface component temperatures are important inputs in longwave radiation and evapotranspiration estimation models. Most temperature inversion approaches focus only on two components, namely, soil leaves, because space-based multiangle observations lacking. This approach is inconsistent with ground-based measurements, which suggest that the of sunlit shaded may significantly differ. paper explores a three-component scheme uses airborne thermal infrared to decrease difference between...

Surface upward longwave radiation (SULR) is an important component of the surface energy balance and closely related to land temperature emissivity. The estimation SULR plays role in study circulation climate change. State-of-the-art methods estimate SULR, including physical method hybrid method, are conducted without considering directional thermal (DTR), which may induce a large error estimation, particularly over sparsely vegetated surfaces. In this paper, we modified...
