Land surface temperature (LST) is one of the key parameters in the physics of land surface
processes from local through global scales. The importance of LST is being increasingly …

As an intrinsic property of natural materials, land surface emissivity (LSE) is an important
surface parameter and can be derived from the emitted radiance measured from space …

As evaporation of water is an energy-demanding process, increasing evapotranspiration
rates decrease the surface temperature (Ts) of leaves and plants. Based on this principle …

This paper discusses the application and adaptation of two existing operational algorithms
for land surface emissivity (ε) retrieval from different operational satellite/airborne sensors …

Vegetation plays a vital role in the ecological functioning of terrestrial and coastal
ecosystems. Remote sensing generally provides timely and accurate information to manage …

Predicting land surface energy budgets requires precise information of land surface
emissivity (LSE) and land surface temperature (LST). LST is one of the essential climate …

The retrieval of indicators of vegetation stress from remote sensing imagery is an important
issue for the accurate assessment of forest decline. The Photochemical Reflectance Index …

Land surface emissivity retrieval over agricultural regions is important for energy balance
estimations, land cover assessment and other related environmental studies. The Advanced …

The land surface temperature (LST) pattern is regarded as one of the most important
indicators of the environmental consequences of land use/land cover change. The possible …

Evapotranspiration (ET) is a key process in land surface–atmosphere studies. It mainly
depends on water availability and incoming solar radiation and then reflects the interactions …
