Aerosol Satellite Remote Sensing Aerosol Satellite Remote Sensing

A new aerosol retrieval algorithm is presented which computes the spectral opti-cal depth over the ocean from spaceborne radiometers. It includes both multiplescattering and the bi-directional re ectance of the ocean surface. The algorithmis applied to data from the Along Track Scanning Radiometer 2 (ATSR-2).This radiometer aboard the ERS-2 satellite has 4 bands in the visible a...

Estimating Ecosystem Respiration Using Satellite Remote Sensing

SUMMARY Here we report a method for estimating ecosystem respiration (R e) by exclusive use of remotely sensed land surface temperature (T r) from NASA's moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensors. A combination of daytime and nighttime MODIS T r data was used to model an 8-day mean value of land surface temperature (T r(mean)), which was then used in a modified Arrhenius-bas...
