This federal contract award to the University of Massachusetts Boston (UMass Boston) is focused on the continued maintenance and production of climate quality land surface albedo, bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF), and nadir BRDF-adjusted surface reflectance (NBAR) products from the Suomi-NPP and JPSS (NOAA-20) satellite missions. These products provide essential data on the radiative character of the Earth's land surfaces, which is critical input for climate, weather,...
This $560,720 federal grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation to the University of Massachusetts Boston to support research on land surface albedo. The project aims to leverage complementary satellite remote sensing data from Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 to improve temporal and spatial resolution estimates of land surface albedo, particularly in response to seasonal changes, snow cover, and ecosystem disturbances in northern high latitude regions. As a public research university, the...
