A remote sensing surface energy balance algorithm for land (SEBAL)-1. Formulation

TLDR
The Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SEBAL) as mentioned in this paper estimates the spatial variation of most essential hydro-meteorological parameters empirically, and requires only field information on short wave atmospheric transmittance, surface temperature and vegetation height.

Comparison of two model approaches in the Zambezi river basin with regard to model reliability and identifiability

TL;DR: In this article, two different hydrological modeling approaches were used to estimate terrestrial storage estimates in the upper Zambezi river basin, which will be compared with estimates derived from the Gravity Recovery And Climate Experiment (GRACE) in a future study.

Estimation of the evapotranspiration rate from diurnal groundwater level fluctuations in the Okavango Delta, Botswana

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method to estimate evapotranspiration rates based on diurnal groundwater level fluctuations observed in the Okavango Delta, Botswana, for varying local vegetation cover and soil characteristics.

Reconstructing daily clear-sky land surface temperature for cloudy regions from MODIS data

TL;DR: A new Remotely Sensed DAily land Surface Temperature reconstruction (RSDAST) model is presented that recovers clear sky LST for pixels covered by cloud using only clear-sky neighboring pixels from nearby dates and provides consistent daily LST which are critical for daily drought monitoring.

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.
