ESTIMATION OF THE FRACTION OF CANOPY COVER FROM MULTISPECTRAL DATA TO BE USED IN A WATER SOIL EROSION PREDICTION MODEL
Using the 16 day MODIS (aboard the EOS Terra satellite) 250m NDVI and ground biophysical and spectral measurements we established simple relationships between these parameters and the canopy cover. The canopy cover is used in water erosion models to estimate the amount of soil loss under precipitati...
