- 2014
Leaf area index (LAI) products at regional and global scales are being routinely generated from individual instrument data acquired at a specific time. As a result of cloud contamination and other… Expand
An Improved Land Surface Emissivity Parameter for Land Surface Models Using Global Remote Sensing Observations
- Menglin S. Jin, S. Liang
- Geology
- 15 June 2006
Abstract Because land surface emissivity (e) has not been reliably measured, global climate model (GCM) land surface schemes conventionally set this parameter as simply constant, for example, 1 as in… Expand
Retrieving leaf area index using a genetic algorithm with a canopy radiative transfer model
Leaf area index (LAI) is an important structural property of vegetation canopy and is also one of the basic quantities driving the algorithms used in regional and global biogeochemical, ecological… Expand
The altitudinal dependence of recent rapid warming over the Tibetan Plateau
- Jun Qin, K. Yang, S. Liang, Xiaofeng Guo

- 21 October 2009
The Tibetan Plateau (TP) exerts significant impacts on its surroundings through its thermal and dynamical processes. In recent decades, especially since 2000, the TP has been experiencing a more… Expand
Consistency of MODIS surface bidirectional reflectance distribution function and albedo retrievals: 2. Validation
[1] The evaluation of the first available satellite-based global albedo product at 1-km resolution is essential for its application in climate studies. We evaluate the accuracy of the… Expand
