Sentinel 2 and 3 for Temperature Monitoring Over the Amazon
2018
In this work we present results of an early assessment of the performance of the Land Surface Temperature (LST) product retrieved from the Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR) on board the Sentinel-3 satellite (S3/SLSTR) over the Amazon basin. Results are validated from comparison of S3/SLSTR retrievals against in situ measurements of surface temperature collected over one instrumented site in the Peruvian Amazon. The validation exercise was performed on the standard S3/SLSTR Level-2 LST product as well as on a dedicated LST split-window algorithm with an explicit dependence on surface emissivity. Surface emissivity maps obtained from the high spatial resolution of S2/MSI are…
Uncertainties in The S-Sebi Model to Estimate Surface Energy Fluxes Over Natural Grasslands in Brazil
2021
Evapotranspiration (ET) is one of the main fluxes in the global water cycle. In this context, we assessed an operational methodology based on the S-SEBI model to accurately estimate energy fluxes over the natural grasslands of Pampa biome. The S-SEBI performance was investigated considering radiation data from both ERA5 reanalysis and tower flux. Comparisons from satellite-based estimates with in situ measurements were performed with and without energy balance closure (EBC). Results indicated that meteorological inputs have low sensitivity on daily ET estimates. In contrast, the instantaneous components are more affected. The impact in the daily ET is lower when in situ data without EBC are…
