surface_albedos/ecostress

Surface reflectance data converted from ECOSTRESS. These files contain reflectance data converted to either "spherical reflectance" or "single-scattering albedo" where possible (denoted as 'r' and 'w' in the file headers). Files are categorised based on the object measured in a self-explanatory manner. https://speclib.jpl.nasa.gov/https://ecostress.jpl.nasa.gov/ The ECOSTRESS spectral library includes data from three other spectral libraries: Johns Hopkins University (JHU) Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) United States Geological Survey (USGS - Reston) If you use data from the ECOSTRESS spectral library in a publication we ask that you reference the following articles: Meerdink, S. K., Hook, S. J., Roberts, D. A., & Abbott, E. A. (2019). The ECOSTRESS spectral library version 1.0. Remote Sensing of Environment, 230(111196), 1–8. Baldridge, A. M., S.J. Hook, C.I. Grove and G.

Remote Sensing of Environment, vol 113, pp. 711-715. <PDF> Reproduced from the ECOSTRESS Spectral Library through the courtesy of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California. Data obtained from Gerardo Rivera on 4 June 2025, by Harrison Nicholls. Data are tabulated in terms of directional-hemispheric (AKA spherical) reflectance are measured at 23 degrees from the zenith (Meerdink+19).
