A Semi-Empirical Split-Window Algorithm for Retrieving near Surface Air Temperature from MODIS Data

This study attempts to develop an effective algorithm to directly derive near surface air temperature from EOS/MODIS data. From a theoretical viewpoint, the split-window algorithm for retrieving near surface air temperature was developed based on the radiative transfer equation, which includes the c...
