Evolution of evapotranspiration models using thermal and shortwave remote sensing data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a brief account of the key milestones in the history of remote sensing ET model development in two categories: temperature-based and conductance-based models, and make the following recommendations for future work: (1) improving key remote sensing products needed for ET mapping purposes, including soil moisture, foliage clumping index, and leaf carboxylation rate, (2) combining temperature-and conductancebased models for regional ET estimation, (3) refining methodologies for tight coupling between carbon and water cycles, (4) fully utilizing vegetation structural and

Integrating remote sensing and a process-based hydrological model to evaluate water use and productivity in a south Indian catchment

TL;DR: In this article, the authors combined remote sensing and a distributed hydrological model to evaluate water use and crop water productivity in the Upper Bhima catchment in southern India using an innovative integration of remotely sensed evapotranspiration and a process-based hydrologogical model, which demonstrated the improved understanding of the entire water balance in an area where data are scarcely available.

How much water is used for irrigation? A new approach exploiting coarse resolution satellite soil moisture products

TL;DR: A new approach exploiting satellite soil moisture observations for quantifying the amount of water applied for irrigation is developed, with satisfactory performance from satellite data with retrieval errors lower than ∼0.04 m³/m³ and revisit times shorter than 3 days.

Modeling air temperature through a combination of remote sensing and GIS data

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid methodology between Remote Sensing and Geographical Information Systems is presented to retrieve daily instantaneous, mean, maximum and minimum air temperatures (2002-2004) as well as monthly and annual mean, maxima and minima air temperature (2000-2005) on a regional scale (Catalonia, northeast of the Iberian Peninsula).

The Interpretation of the Variations in Leaf Water Potential and Stomatal Conductance Found in Canopies in the Field

TL;DR: In this paper, the stomatal conductance of illuminated leaves is a function of current levels of temperature, vapour pressure deficit, leaf water potential (really turgor pressure) and ambient CO $_2$ concentration and when plotted against any one of these variables a scatter diagram results.

A Revised Land Surface Parameterization (SiB2) for Atmospheric GCMS. Part I: Model Formulation

TL;DR: In this paper, a revised version of the Simple Biosphere model (SiB2) is presented, incorporating a realistic canopy photosynthesis-conductance model to describe the simultaneous transfer of CO2 and water vapor into and out of the vegetation, respectively.

Footprint prediction of scalar fluxes from analytical solutions of the diffusion equation

TL;DR: The use of analytical solutions of the diffusion equation for "footprint prediction" is explored in this paper, where the upwind area most likely to affect a downwind flux measurement at a given height is compared.

Wheat canopy temperature: A practical tool for evaluating water requirements

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a sliding cubic smoothing technique to calculate daily water contents and thus water depletion rates for the entire growing season and used this to predict water use by wheat in six differentially irrigated plots.
