The Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation: High-resolution laser ranging of the Earth’s forests and topography

The paper mapped above ground biomass using satellite radar and LiDAR fusion. Satellite radar systems provides global data, as it passes through clouds. However, radar cannot produce vertical profile. Satellite LiDAR system, the paper targeting, provides accurate canopy point clouds. On the contrary, clouds occlude LiDAR incident wave. As the author mentioned, it only covered only 4% of the surface for 2 years. To combine LiDAR with radar, LiDAR data was compared to radar and then extended to radar. Validation was done plots where the coverage of LiDAR and radar overlapped.

Potential of a Drone Hyperspectral Data-Based Model to Remote Estimate Chlorophyll-a Concentration from Sentinel 2A and 2B Sensors Data. In  AGU Fall Meeting 2019 . AGU. As for ocean chlorophyll contents, they are not distributed evenly. Rather, their amounts are polarized. The author harmonized two models, the one is classifying model and the other is retrieving model.

Feilhauer, H., Asner, G. P., Martin, R. E., & Schmidtlein, S. (2010). Brightness-normalized partial least squares regression for hyperspectral data.  Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer ,  111 (12-13), 1947-1957. Leaf spectra varies with canopy structure, such as leaf angel, LAI etc. They affects the magnitude of spectra. Brightness normalization is one option to alleviate canopy effects. In doing so, spectral magnitude is normalized without any changes in the shape. It could improve model performance by reducing shade heterogeneity within canopy.
