Geospatial Techniques for Improved Water Management in Jordan
TL;DR: In this paper, a case from Jordan where geospatial techniques were utilized for irrigation water auditing was presented, where mapping of irrigated areas and crop water requirements was carried out using remote sensing data of Landsat 8 and daily weather records.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of multiple forest disturbances and impact on vegetation regrowth from interannual Landsat time series (1985–2015)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assessed multiple disturbances for the 650 Mha of Canada's forested ecosystems using annual change information derived from Landsat time series imagery (1985-2015). Changes were typed by agent (fire, harvest, and non-stand replacing).
Journal ArticleDOI
Sharpening ECOSTRESS and VIIRS land surface temperature using harmonized Landsat-Sentinel surface reflectances
Jie Xue,Martha C. Anderson,Feng Gao,Christopher Hain,Liang Sun,Yun Yang,Kyle Knipper,William P. Kustas,Alfonso F. Torres-Rua,Mitch Schull +9 more
TL;DR: A modified version of the DMS approach that employs a relaxed box size for energy conservation (EC) is proposed, enabling the development of a prototype system that generates high spatiotemporal resolution LST products for improved agricultural water use monitoring by synthesizing multi-source remote sensing data.
Journal ArticleDOI
A cloud shadow detection method combined with cloud height iteration and spectral analysis for Landsat 8 OLI data
TL;DR: This article improves the geometry-based cloud shadow detection method for Landsat OLI from the following two aspects: object-based and pixel spectral analyses are combined to detect cloud shadows, which can realize cloudshadow detection from two aspects of target scale and pixel scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping annual irrigation from Landsat imagery and environmental variables across the conterminous United States
TL;DR: In this article, Xie et al. presented an approach to map the extent of irrigated croplands across the conterminous U.S. (CONUS) for each year in the period of 1997-2017.

A Landsat surface reflectance dataset for North America, 1990-2000
Jeffrey G. Masek,Eric Vermote,Nazmi Saleous,Robert E. Wolfe,Forrest G. Hall,Karl F. Huemmrich,Feng Gao,J. Kutler,Teng-Kui Lim +8 more
TL;DR: Initial comparisons with ground-based optical thickness measurements and simultaneously acquired MODIS imagery indicate comparable uncertainty in Landsat surface reflectance compared to the standard MODIS reflectance product.

Discriminating clear sky from clouds with MODIS
Steven A. Ackerman,Kathleen I. Strabala,W. Paul Menzel,Richard A. Frey,Christopher C. Moeller,Liam E. Gumley +5 more
TL;DR: The MODIS cloud mask algorithm as discussed by the authors uses several cloud detection tests to indicate a level of confidence that the MEDIS is observing clear skies, which is ancillary input to MEDIS land, ocean, and atmosphere science algorithms to suggest processing options.

Calculation of radiative fluxes from the surface to top of atmosphere based on ISCCP and other global data sets: Refinements of the radiative transfer model and the input data
TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors used a more advanced NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) radiative transfer model and improved ISCCP cloud climatology and ancillary data sets.

Spectral signature of alpine snow cover from the Landsat Thematic Mapper.
Jeff Dozier,Jeff Dozier +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the spectral signatures of the Landsat TM images of the Sierra Nevada were analyzed to distinguish several classes of snow from other surface covers, and a number of TM images were used for automatic analysis of alpine snow cover.
