36 4. LST/LSE RETRIEVAL Methods for LST retrieval (based on the Radiative Transfer Equation): SINGLE-CHANNEL (1 thermal band) SPLIT-WINDOW (2 thermal bands) A priori knowledge of emissivity is required, which is the major disadvantage of these methods. Over well-known areas emissivity can be estimated from NDVI. TEMPERATURE/EMISSIVITY SEPARATION (TES) It requires multispectral TIR data (at least 4 thermal bands). It provides simultaneously surface temperature and emissivity, which is the main advantage of this algorithm. TES has been used to obtain the LST products. Problems in emissivity retrieval over areas with low spectral contrast (water, vegetation), and it is very sensitive to atmospheric correction.
37 4. LST/LSE RETRIEVAL TES algorithm (Gillespie et al., 1998: IEEE Trans. Geosci. Rem. Sens.) Atm. Correc. L surface, L NEM (iterative procedure) Ts=max(T i ) ε initial AHS bands: 72,73,75,76 77,78,79 RATIO β-spectrum (normalized ε) (Note that it can be also applied to field measurements made with a multiband radiometer) Coefficients a, b, c obtained from ASTER spectral library MMD ε min =a+bmmd c (semi-empirical) Result: Ts, ε i
38 4. LST/LSE RETRIEVAL LST VALIDATION FROM FIELD MEASUREMENTS (AGRISAR) 53 test points RMSE < 1.9 K

41 4. LST/LSE RETRIEVAL LST PRODUCT PROVIDED BY INTA (level 2b) Obtained from ATCOR-4 software Single-channel method using AHS band 74 Problems found: LST is lower than at-sensor brightness temperature. Validation from field measurements shows RMSE = 4.7 K
42 4. LST/LSE RETRIEVAL RESULTS FOR LAND SURFACE EMISSIVITY RETRIEVAL Problems related to the emissivity spectra retrieval from multispectral TIR data: TES is very sensitive to atmospheric correction. Not all the surface acomplish the relationship between ε min and MMD. Problems over low-mmd surfaces, but it can be partly solved assuming ε min = AGRISAR: vegetated areas, high vegetation cover (P140 and P250)
43 4. LST/LSE RETRIEVAL AREAS WITH HIGH SPECTRAL CONTRAST: acceptable results Direct comparison between CIMEL-2 bands 5, 4, 3, 2 and AHS bands 72, 73, 76, 77 RMSE = Emissivity P222 (Soil/Corn) MMD= AHS In-Situ Wavelenght (microns)

46 5. EVAPOTRANSPIRATION EVAPOTRANSPIRATION - Knowledge of ET allows the irrigation water use optimization (hydrological cycle). - Direct estimation of ET by solving the energy balance equation requires TIR data. ET Retrieval from high-resolution data: Sobrino et al. (2005), A simple algorithm to estimate evapotranspiration from DAIS data: Application to the DAISEX campaigns, Journal of Hydrology, 315: Gómez et al. (2005), Retrieval of evapotranspiration over the Alpilles/ReSeDA experimental site using airborne POLDER sensor and a thermal camera, Remote Sensing of Environment, 96: The methodology is based in the S-SEBI model [Roerink et al. 2000, Phys. Chem. Earth (B), 25(2): ] Instantaneous ET: LET i = Λ i ( Rni Gi ) R ni : instanteneous net radiation G i : instantaneous soil heat flux Λ i : evaporative fraction Daily ET ET d = Λ C R L i di ni (Λ i Λ d, G d 0) C di R = R nd ni C di depends on the day of the year and time (Bastiaanssen 2000, Journal of Hydrology, 229:87-100)

51 6. CLOUDS/SHADOWS In previous campaigns (DAISEX, SPARC, SEN2FLEX) airborne imagery was acquired under clear-sky conditions. During AGRISAR, some measurements were affected by clouds/shadows:
52 6. CLOUDS/SHADOWS Values extracted from cloud pixels clearly provides wrong results. Pixels near clouds are somehow affected. Difficult interpretation.
53 6. CLOUDS/SHADOWS Simple test for Cloud masking: LST < 290 K and NDVI < 0.5 Percentage of shadows (obtained with ATCOR-4, M. Jiménez from INTA) It would be useful to have also cloud/shadows masking products!

55 7. CONCLUSIONS A complete database of field measurements and airborne imagery was collected in the AGRISAR/EAGLE field campaigns. On-ground calibration of AHS TIR bands showed good results over land: Plots with high emissivity and vegetation cover: RMSE < 0.9 K Other plots (soil): RMSE < 1.5 K Overall RMSE: 1.1 K Land Surface Temperature products are available (validation over land shows a RMSE < 1.9 K) Land Surface Emissivity products are also available, but some problems can be found over areas with low MMD (however, in these cases one can assume near-blackbody behaviour ε 0.99). Evapotranspiration maps can be obtained from a simple methodology. These products require a deeper validation (and also comparison with other models).
