A number of moderate resolution LAI products have been produced in urgent need of large scale vegetation monitoring. High resolution LAI reference maps are necessary to validate these LAI products. This study used a geostatistical regression (GR) method to estimate LAI reference maps by linking in situ LAI and Landsat TM/ETM+ and SPOT-HRV data over two cropland and two grassland sites. To explore the discrepancies of employing different vegetation indices (VIs) on estimating LAI reference maps, this study established the GR models for different VIs, including difference vegetation index (DVI), normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), and ratio vegetation index (RVI). To further assess th...

A novel prior knowledge scheme was used in the algorithm that performs cloud screening, simultaneous AOD and surface reflectance retrieval from the MODIS 500 m Level 1B data. This prior knowledge scheme produced a new Ångström exponent α, utilizing a Terra pass time α and an Aqua pass time α to better satisfy the invariant α assumption. The retrieved AOD data were compared with AOD data observed with the ground-based, automatic Sun-tracking photometer CE318 at corresponding bands in the Heihe region and with Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) data in the Pearl River Delta and in Beijing. Validation experiments demonstrated the potential of ...
