Maps of differences between land surface emissivities obtained from Radiative Tranfer Models and MODIS LST products

Maps of emissivity differences between the Radiative Tranfer Model (RTM) FR97 (François et al., 1997) and MYD21A1 product, and between the RTM Mod3 (François, 2002) and MYD21A1, for the three MODIS spectral bands (centred at 8.55, 11.03, and 12.02 µm) over the Iberian Peninsula (July 10, 2015). These maps were obtained as a result of the research described in: Pérez-Planells, L., Niclòs, R., Valor, E. & Göttsche, F.M. (2022). Retrieval of land surface emissivities over partially vegetated surfaces from satellite data using radiative transfer models. IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 60, 1-21; https://doi.org/10.1109/TGRS.2022.3224639 This research was supported in part by the project PID2020-118797RB-I00 under Grant MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 and in part by the Conselleria d’Innovació, Universitats, Ciència i Societat Digital de la Generalitat Valenciana, under Project PROMETEO/2021/016.
