Modeling of LWIR Hyperspectral System Performance for Surface Object and Effluent Detection Applications
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical end-to-end remote sensing system performance forecasting model has been extended to the long-wave infrared (LWIR) by combining both surface spectral emissivity variation with surface temperature variation on the upwelling radiance measured by a downwardlooking LWIR hyperspectral sensor.

Remote Sensing of Evapotranspiration over the Central Arizona Irrigation and Drainage District, USA
Andrew N. French,Douglas J. Hunsaker,Lahouari Bounoua,Arnon Karnieli,William Luckett,Robert Strand +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a remote sensing study using three ET models was conducted over the Central Arizona Irrigation and Drainage District (CAIDD) over 137 wheat plots (winter/spring crop), 183 cotton plots (summer crop), and 225 alfalfa plots (year-round), and the employed models were the Satellite-Based Energy Balance for Mapping Evapotranspiration with Internalized Calibration (METRIC), the Two Source Energy Balance (TSEB), and VISW).

Daytime sensible heat flux estimation over heterogeneous surfaces using multitemporal land-surface temperature observations
TL;DR: In this article, a surface renewal analysis to estimate the sensible heat flux (H) requires as input the mean ramp amplitude and period observed in the ramp-like pattern of the air temperature measured at high frequency.

Monitoring annual urbanization activities in Guangzhou using Landsat images 1987–2015
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the annual urbanization activities over the past three decades in Guangzhou, one of the largest metropolises in China and developed a three-step method: 1 three spectral indices were derived to extract the candidates of training samples based on decision trees; 2 a spatial filter was used to extract homogenous samples for each land-cover type; and 3 temporal consistency checking was performed for the samples of urban areas.

A description of the correlated k distribution method for modeling nongray gaseous absorption, thermal emission, and multiple scattering in vertically inhomogeneous atmospheres
Andrew A. Lacis,Valdar Oinas +1 more
TL;DR: A radiative transfer method for treating nongray gaseous absorption and thermal emission in vertically inhomogeneous multiple scattering atmospheres is described in this paper, where probability density distributions of absorption coefficient strength are derived from line-by-line calculations to construct line-By-line and band model based k distributions.
