Towards Multidecadal Consistent Meteosat Surface Albedo Time Series
Monitoring of land surface albedo dynamics is important for the understanding of observed climate trends. Recently developed multidecadal surface albedo data products, derived from a series of geostationary satellite data, provide the opportunity to study long term surface albedo dynamics at the regional to global scale. Reliable estimates of temporal trends in surface albedo require carefully ...
متن کاملRetrieval of Land Surface Reflectance and Albedo from Meris Data
An atmospheric correction algorithm for the retrieval of land surface reflectance from the Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) data has been implemented. The algorithm is designed to obtain the main atmospheric parameters needed in the correction from the image itself, leading to an optimal characterization of the atmospheric state, in temporal and spatial resolution terms. The first...
متن کاملSurface Albedo from Bidirectional Reflectance
T o t a l hemispherical shortwave reflectance (albedo) is a major parameter of interest for studies of land surface climatology and global change. Efforts' to estimate albedo from remote sensing data have been constrained by the available instrumentation that typically provide observations of reflected radiance from a single view direction in narrow spectral bands'. However, the capability to o...
متن کاملImproving MODIS surface BRDF/Albedo retrieval with MISR multiangle observations
We explore a synergistic approach to use the complementary angular samplings from the Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) to improve MODIS surface bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) and albedo retrieval. Preliminary case studies show that MODIS and MISR surface bidirectional reflectance factors (BRFs) are gen...
متن کاملEstimating Land Surface Albedo from Satellite Data
Title: ESTIMATING LAND SURFACE ALBEDO FROM SATELLITE DATA Tao He, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Directed by: Dr. Shunlin Liang, Professor Department of Geographical Sciences Land surface albedo, defined as the ratio of the surface reflected incoming and outgoing solar radiation, is one of the key geophysical variables controlling the surface radiation budget. Surface shortwave albedo is widely use...
