Abstract:Kernel-driven BRDF (bi-directional reflectance distribution) model was the core of the AMBRALS, an algorithm for MODIS land surface BRDF and albedo products. In the onboard version of AMBRALS, the LiSparseR Gometrical-Optical (GO) kernel was used. But a new derived kernel----LiTransit kernel is also good at transition from LiSparse kernel to LiDense kernel when zenith angle is large, and accords more to the basic principle of GO model than LiSparseR kernel. Results of validation show: RossThick-LiTransit kerne… Show more
