Determination of snow-covered area in different land covers in central Alaska, U.S.A., from aircraft data --- April 1995 / Dorothy K. Hall, James L. Foster, Alfred T.C. Chang, Carl S. Benson, Janet Y.L. Chien.
Title: | Determination of snow-covered area in different land covers in central Alaska, U.S.A., from aircraft data --- April 1995 / Dorothy K. Hall, James L. Foster, Alfred T.C. Chang, Carl S. Benson, Janet Y.L. Chien. |
Author(s): | Hall, Dorothy K. Foster, James L. Chang, Alfred T. C. Benson, Carl S. Chien, Janet Y. L. |
Date: | 1998. |
In: | Annals of Glaciology. (1998.), Vol. 26 (1998) |
Abstract: | Describes trial of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) snow-mapping project on 13 April 1995 over central Alaska, using MODIS Airborne Simulator (MAS), a 50 channel spectroradiometer. Used integrated reflectance to estimate different vegetation-cover densities. Overall, accuracy of snow-mapping algorithm is greater than 87.41% for 13 April MAS scene with variety of surface covers (coniferous, deciduous and mixed forests, muskeg, tundra and frozen lakes) |
Notes: | Annals of Glaciology. Vol. 26 :149-155 (1998). Papers from the International Symposium on Snow and Avalanches, 26--30 May 1997, Chamonix Mont-Blanc, France, D.M. McClung (Editor) |
