Green Vegetation FractionTeam Members: Yunyue Yu, Corinne Carter, and Zhangyan JiangBackgroundGreen Vegetation Fraction (GVF) corresponds to the fraction of ground covered by green vegetation; it quantifies the spatial extent of the vegetation. GVF is a very good candidate for the replacement of classical vegetation indices for the monitoring of ecosystems. It is needed for land surface initialization in numerical weather prediction models and land surface monitoring as well. Data accessThe data are available to the public via NOAA CLASS, and please refer to the instruction for details on how to order and download the data . |
