Highlights

  • We examine capability of spectral indices to capture isohydric/anisohydric behavior.

  • We used both in-situ spectral measurements and multi-angle MODIS images.

  • Only PRI could capture species-level drought responses.

  • This study presents a step forward to directly mapping emergent isohydricity.

Abstract

To classify trees along a spectrum of isohydric to anisohydric behavior is a promising new framework for identifying tree species' sensitivities to drought stress, directly related to the vulnerability of carbon uptake of terrestrial ecosystems with increased hydroclimate variability. Trees with isohydric strategies regulate stomatal conductance to maintain stationary leaf water potential, while trees with anisohydric strategies allow leaf …

Diffuse radiation can increase canopy light use efficiency (LUE). This creates the need to differentiate the effects of direct and diffuse radiation when simulating terrestrial gross primary production (GPP). Here, we present a novel GPP model, the diffuse-fraction-based two-leaf model (DTEC), which includes the leaf response to direct and diffuse radiation, and treats maximum LUE for shaded leaves (ɛmsh defined as a power function of the diffuse fraction (Df)) and sunlit leaves (ɛmsu defined as a constant) separately. An Amazonian rainforest site (KM67) was used to calibrate the model by simulating the linear relationship …


Remote Sensing Estimation Of Surface Oil Volume During The 2010 Deepwater Horizon Oil Blowout In The Gulf Of Mexico: Scaling Up Aviris Observation With Modis Measurements, Chuanmin Hu, Lian Feng Jun 2017

Remote Sensing Estimation Of Surface Oil Volume During The 2010 Deepwater Horizon Oil Blowout In The Gulf Of Mexico: Scaling Up Aviris Observation With Modis Measurements, Chuanmin Hu, Lian Feng

C-IMAGE data

This dataset contains Rayleigh corrected reflectance data from 19 MODIS images collected between April and July 2010, along with their corresponding maps of surface oil volume, maps of relative oil thickness of different classes, and maps of probability distributions of different thicknesses. Surface oil was estimated by spatially scaling up AVIRIS observations to synoptic MODIS measurements, which were the used to derived oil classification and probability maps.

Sargassum Detection Using Modis, Aviris, Landsat, And Hico Imagery, Chuanmin Hu, Lian Feng

C-IMAGE data

This dataset includes Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), Airborne Visible-InfraRed Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS), Landsat and Hyperspectral Imager for the Coastal Ocean (HICO) images used in the paper: Hu, C., Feng, L., Hardy, R. F., & Hochberg, E. J. (2015). Spectral and spatial requirements of remote measurements of pelagic Sargassum macroalgae. Remote Sensing of Environment, 167, 229–246. doi:10.1016/j.rse.2015.05.022, together with the delineated sargassum features. The in situ spectral measurements used as endmembers to simulate the results are also included.
