  4. Who are you? 2- Which of you have already… (use the to answer)

  5. Spectral Signatures • Let’s start by the basics… • Different materials reflect and absorb differently at different wavelengths. • Have different spectral signatures. • Enables to distinguish the different features in remotely sensed data.

  6. Spectral Signatures Spectral Signature Or Spectral response curves Q. Which of the curves correspond to vegetation? (use the )

  7. Spectral Signatures Spectral Signature Or Spectral response curves Strong absorption However the reflectance peak in this region is located @ .55 m – that is why veg looks green

  8. Spectral Signatures Spectral Signature Or Spectral response curves High reflectance in the NIR (.8 m)

  9. Spectral Signatures Spectral Signature Or Spectral response curves The reflectance curves of non vegetated surfaces have smaller dependence on wavelength absorption by water, cellulose and lignin and several other biochemical constituents

  10. Spectral Signatures Spectral Signature Or Spectral response curves A material can only be identified from its spectral signature if the sensing system has enough spectral resolution to distinguish its spectrum from those of other materials!

  17. Vegetation Indices • Combine information from different channels to enhance the 'vegetation signal'. NDVI (15 June 2008) SEVIRI/MSG Channels 1 e 2 reflectances NDVI daily composite of SEVIRI full disk, June 15, 2008 (Source: Yu,Y. et al. Development of Vegetation Products for U.S. GOES-R Satellite Mission, Presented on 4th Global Vegetation Workshop Univ. of Montana, Missoula, June 16-19 2009

  18. Vegetation Indices For bare soil NDVI ~0 NDVI (15 June 2008) For vegetated areas NDVI ranges between 0.2 and 0.6 NDVI daily composite of SEVIRI full disk, June 15, 2008 (Source: Yu,Y. et al.

  19. Vegetation Indices NDVI – Normalized Difference Vegetation Index • Advantages • Very easy to compute – it is a transformation of reflectance in 2 channels; does not need additional information (like the type of soil/vegetation); • Allows the analysis of long time series – using satellite data from NOAA, we can analyze data with more than 20 years.

  20. Vegetation NDVI – Normalized Difference Vegetation Index • Advantages • Very easy to compute – it is a transformation of reflectance in 2 channels; does not need additional information (like the type of soil/vegetation); • Allows the analysis of long time series – using satellite data from NOAA, we can analyze data with more than 20 years. • Disadvantages • Sensitive to fluctuations/noise in the observations (the lighting conditions of the surface, aerosols, contamination by clouds); • It saturates in high biomass situations; • Does not correspond to any property / physical characteristic of the surface/vegetation.

  21. Biogeophysical Parameters Parameters that represent the structural characteristics of vegetated surfaces: Fraction of Vegetation Cover [0 – 1]: fraction of the surface covered by vegetation (FVC) Leaf Area Index : total area occupied by the leaves per unit area [m2/m2] (LAI) It provides complementary information to the FVC, accounting for the surface of leaves contained in a vertical column normalized by its cross-sectional area.

  22. Biogeophysical Parameters 1 pixel 1 pixel FVC=0.8 LAI= 5 FVC=0.8 LAI= 5 FVC=0.6 LAI= 5 FVC=0.8 LAI= 7 ?

  23. Biogeophysical Parameters Parameter directly related with the state (and health) of vegetation: Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation: part of radiation used for photosynthesis (0.4 – 0.7m) absorbed by the green parts of the canopy (FAPAR)

  24. Channel 2 Channel 1 Biogeophysical Parameters FVC, LAI, FAPAR estimations from Remote Sensing are based in the analysis of vegetation signature in the 0.6 m, 0.8 m & 1.6 m channels. Starting with the characterization of reflectance in different channels for different types of vegetation (V1,V2, V3, ...) and soil (S1, S2, S3).

  25. Channel 2 Channel 1 LSA SAF FVC Algorithm  For any given observation () the algorithm assumes this value can be modelled by the pairs (ρvegetation, ρsoilsubclass) FVC ESTIMATION observation • the pure types,Vi and Si for each pixel are obtained by the prevalent Land-cover  • the distances between () and Vi,Si give the fractions of each vegetation and soil type within the scene  Number of vegetation subclasses present in the pixel Fraction of vegetation cover for vegetation type Vi

  26. LSA SAF LAI Algorithm LAI ESTIMATION - semi-empirical method proposed by Roujean and Lacaze (2002), in which LAI is related to FVC trough the following expression: Where b and G are constants and a0 and  coefficients depend on the LandCover Map.

  27. LSA SAF fAPAR Algorithm fAPAR ESTIMATION – the LSA SAF fAPAR is estimated from a NDVI-like vegetation index: Since the view-illumination geometry may have a large impact on reflectance observations, RDVI is computed from surface reflectances corrected to an optimal geometry. 

  37. Products Validation • The quality of the vegetation products (FVC, LAI, FAPAR) is regularly monitored through: • Comparisons with similar parameters obtained from other satellites (MERIS (ENVISAT),MODIS (EOS), VEGETATION (SPOT)); • Comparisons with in situ data;

  38. Products Validation LAI SEVIRI/ MERIS/ MODIS • High spatial consistency; • LSA SAF LAI presents less gaps in vegetated areas. LSA SAF team (F. Camacho, J. Garcia-Haro)

  39. LAI Products Validation • Comparison with in situ measurements Dahra (Senegal) Q. Which of the products shows less gaps? MODIS MSG MERIS Land-SAF team (F. Camacho, J. Garcia-Haro) Land-SAF team (F. Camacho, J. Garcia-Haro)

  40. LAI Products Validation • Comparison with in situ measurements Dahra (Senegal) • All products are consistent with ground measurements; • LSA SAF LAI better follows the seasonality of the vegetation activity during 2006 and 2007; • The peak of the green season is well captured by LSA SAF LAI; Land-SAF team (F.

  41. Comparison to Polar-Orbiter Derived Products • The vegetation products (FVC, LAI, FAPAR) obtained from geostationary satellites (like SEVIRI/MSG), while compared with polar-orbiter derived products (MODIS, VGT): • have coarser spatialresolution; • Reproduce the seasonal cycle in a more realistic way (without spurious variations; time series show less noise); • Have fewer gaps in the data

  42. Applications - Phenological parameters • Vegetation products from LSA SAF • Generate spatially coherent images of phenological parameters. E.g: • The start, length & amplitude of the growing season; • the timing of phenological stages (onset of greenness, maximum development, senescence);

  43. Applications - Phenological parameters • The date of the SOS (start of the growing season) is a critical parameter for food security monitoring.
