BOSTON UNIVERSITY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF ART AND SCIENCES Dissertation ASSESSMENT OF THE MODIS LAI AND FPAR ALGORITHM: RETRIEVAL QUALITY, THEORETICAL BASIS AND VALIDATION by

Green leaf area index (LAI) measures the amount of foliage in a vegetation canopy and strongly influences many ecological processes, including the fraction of photosynthetically active radiation (FPAR) absorbed by the canopy. Since these two variables are required in most modeling studies of vegetation and climate, they are operationally derived from measurements of the Moderate Resolution Imag...

A review of cloud top height and optical depth histograms from MISR, ISCCP, and MODIS

[1] There are notable differences in the joint histograms of cloud top height and optical depth being produced from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and the Multiangle Imaging Spectro‐Radiometer (MISR) and by the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP). These differences have their roots in the different retrieval approaches used by the three projects ...

Monitoring spring canopy phenology of a deciduous broadleaf forest using MODIS

Climate change is predicted to alter the canopy phenology of temperate and boreal forests, which will affect carbon, water, and energy budgets. Therefore, there is a great need to evaluate remotely sensed products for their potential to accurately capture canopy dynamics. The objective of this study was to compare several products derived from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (...

Sub-Pixel Fractional Area of Wildfires from MODIS Observations: Retrieval, Validation, and Potential Applications

Using satellite, unmanned aircraft, and meteorological data, this study develops and validates a method to retrieve sub-pixel fire area fractions from fire pixels, detected at 1 km nominal spatial resolution, by the MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). A two-component model (Dozier method) for retrieving sub-pixel fire area fraction and temperature has been available since 198...

Mapping daily snow/ice shortwave broadband albedo from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS): The improved direct retrieval algorithm and validation with Greenland in situ measurement

[1] Snow/ice albedo is a critical variable in surface energy balance calculations. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data have been used routinely to provide global land surface albedo. The MODIS algorithm includes atmospheric correction, surface reflectance angular modeling, and narrowband to broadband albedo conversion. In an earlier study, a ‘‘direct retrieval’’ metho...
