The species is experiencing a worldwide decline and monitoring the extent of its meadows would be a useful approach to estimate the impacts of natural and anthropogenic stressors. Here, we aimed to map the Z. noltei meadows in the Merja Zerga coastal lagoon (Atlantic coast of Morocco) using remote sensing. We used a random forest algorithm combined with field data to classify a SPOT 7 satellite image. Despite the difficulties related to the non-synchronization of the satellite images with the high tide coefficient, our results revealed, with an accuracy of 95%, that dwarf eelgrass beds can be discriminated successfully from other habitats in the lagoon. The estimated area was 160.76 ha when considering mixed beds (Z. noltei-associated macroalgae). The use of SPOT 7 satellite images seems to be satisfactory for long-term monitoring of Z. noltei meadows in the Merja Zerga lagoon and for biomass estimation using an NDVI–biomass quantitative relationship. Nevertheless, using this method of biomass estimation for dwarf eelgrass meadows could be unsuccessful when it comes to areas where the NDVI is saturated due to the stacking of many layers.

Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) has shown great potential for retrieving the foliage area at stand, plant or voxel scales. Several sources of measurement errors have been identified and corrected over the past years. However, measurements remain sensitive to several factors, including, 1) voxel size and vegetation structure within voxels, 2) heterogeneity in sampling from TLS instrument (occlusion and shooting pattern), the consequences of which have been seldom analyzed at the scale of forest plots. In the present paper, we aimed at disentangling biases and errors in plot-scale measurements of LAD with TLS in a simulated vegetation scene. Two negative biases were formerly attributed to (i) the unsampled voxels and to (ii) the subgrid vegetation heterogeneity (i.e. clumping effect), and then quantified, thanks to a the simulation experiment providing known LAD references at voxel scale, vegetation manipulations and unbiased point estimators. We used confidence intervals to evaluate voxel-scale measurement accuracy.

Smith, Auteur ; Hiroki Yoshioka, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 112344 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de télédétection [Termes IGN] Enhanced vegetation index [Termes IGN] image Aqua-MODIS [Termes IGN] image proche infrarouge [Termes IGN] image Terra-MODIS [Termes IGN] indice de végétation [Termes IGN] Nevada (Etats-Unis) [Termes IGN] Normalized Difference Vegetation Index [Termes IGN] réflectance du sol Résumé : (auteur) Spectral vegetation index (VI) time series data from coarse resolution satellite sensors, such as the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), have been utilized in studying vegetation dynamics. Numerous studies have evaluated how well VI products capture variations in vegetation biophysical or physiological conditions. Equally important is to evaluate VI products over “zero vegetation” surfaces consisting of soils, litters, and/or rocks, as they define the lower bound for vegetation detection. VIs, however, vary over zero vegetation surfaces as a function of soil moisture content and surface roughness. In this study, we evaluated the behavior of VIs from Terra MODIS (T-MODIS), Aqua MODIS (A-MODIS), and Suomi-National Polar-orbiting Partnership Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (S-VIIRS) at Railroad Valley Playa, Nevada for a period from April 2013 to September 2019. The playa is a dried lakebed devoid of vegetation throughout the year. Long-term in situ reflectance measurements acquired over the 1 km-by−1 km Radiometric Calibration Test Site (RadCaTS) located on the playa were obtained from the Radiometric Calibration Network (RadCalNet) portal and used as a reference. Three VIs were analyzed, including the normalized difference VI (NDVI), enhanced VI (EVI), and two-band EVI (EVI2). RadCaTS NDVI, EVI, and EVI2 of the playa surface increased and decreased occasionally for the time period examined in this study, and the satellite NDVIs, EVIs, and EVI2s had comparable temporal signatures to the RadCaTS counterparts. T-MODIS and A-MODIS NDVI and EVI2 values were comparable to the RadCaTS counterparts, whereas T-MODIS and A-MODIS EVI values were lower than the RadCaTS counterparts by ~0.006 and ~ 0.01 EVI units, respectively. All the three VIs of S-VIIRS were consistently higher than their RadCaTS counterparts by ~0.008 VI units, due to the higher near-infrared (NIR) reflectances of S-VIIRS than the RadCaTS NIR reflectance. The red and NIR, and red and blue reflectances each formed linear relationships (i.e., soil lines) for each of the three sensors. Variations in reflectance due to surface conditions and observation geometries all appeared as variations along these soil lines. The satellite red-NIR soil lines were comparable to the RadCaTS counterparts, whereas the satellite red-blue soil lines had steeper slopes than the RadCaTS counterparts due to a negative bias in the satellite blue reflectances. This translated into the T-MODIS and A-MODIS EVI behaviors different from those depicted by RadCaTS EVI, and the satellite NDVI and EVI2 behaving more comparably with the RadCaTS counterparts and across the three sensors than the satellite EVI.

Assessing forest phenology: A multi-scale comparison of near-surface (UAV, spectral reflectance sensor, PhenoCam) and satellite (MODIS, Sentinel-2) remote sensing / Shangharsha Thapa in Remote sensing, vol 13 n° 8 (April-2 2021)

However, exploring different aspects of forest phenology based on observations from these sensors and drawing comparatives from the time series of vegetation indices (VIs) still remains a challenge. Accordingly, this research explores the potential of near-surface sensors to track the temporal dynamics of phenology, cross-compare their results against satellite observations (MODIS, Sentinel-2), and validate satellite-derived phenology. A time series of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Green Chromatic Coordinate (GCC), and Normalized Difference of Green & Red (VIgreen) indices were extracted from both near-surface and satellite sensor platforms. The regression analysis between time series of NDVI data from different sensors shows the high Pearson’s correlation coefficients (r > 0.75). Despite the good correlations, there was a remarkable offset and significant differences in slope during green-up and senescence periods. SRS showed the most distinctive NDVI profile and was different to other sensors. PhenoCamGCC tracked green-up of the canopy better than the other indices, with a well-defined start, end, and peak of the season, and was most closely correlated (r > 0.93) with the satellites, while SRS-based VIgreen accounted for the least correlation (r = 0.58) against Sentinel-2. Phenophase transition dates were estimated and validated against visual inspection of the PhenoCam data.

In this study, MWCM was developed by including scale invariant vegetation fraction (fveg) in the old WCM for the estimation of LAI. The non-linear least square optimization technique was applied to determine the optimum model parameters for the retrieval of LAI which was further validated with the observed LAI. The estimated values of LAI by MWCM at VV polarization shows good correspondence (R2 = 0.901 and RMSE = 0.456 m2/m2) with the observed LAI values than at VH polarization (R2 = 0.742 and RMSE = 0.521 m2/m2).The MWCM shows great potential for the LAI estimation of wheat crop by incorporating optical data (i.e. Sentinel-2) in terms of fveg with SAR data (i.e. Sentinel-1A).
