Unlike in situ measurements, satellite data provide global coverage and higher temporal resolution, with very accurate retrievals of land parameters. This is fundamental in the study of climate change and global warming. The authors offer an overview of different methodologies to retrieve land surface parameters— evapotranspiration, emissivity contrast and water deficit indices, land subsidence, leaf area index, vegetation height, and crop coefficient—all of which play a significant role in the study of land cover, land use, monitoring of vegetation and soil water stress, as well as early warning and detection of forest fires and drought.Research & information: generalbicsscEnvironmental economicsbicsscSentinel-2spectral bandsLAIvegetation indicesSentinel-1SARRVIincidence anglecrop coefficientleaf area indexurban heat islandUHI regional impactsnon-urban areasremote sensingthermal bandUHI intensityremote sensing/GISspatial dynamicslandscape metricsurban–rural gradienturbanizationautomatic monitoringtime serieschange detectionurban planninghyperspectralcactidroneclimate changedroughtwater deficit indexinfrared observationssatellitesurface temperatureair temperaturehumiditydew point temperatureland subsidenceDInSARdifferential interferograms stackingfloodscoastal plain of Tabascocrop residuefusionmachine learning algorithmreflective and radar bandsland-cover changeREDD+Google Earth Enginerandom forestlandsatTogoemissivityevapotranspirationheterogeneityRao’s Q indexspectral variation hypothesisthermal infraredResearch & information: generalEnvironmental economicsVenafra Saraedt447584Serio CarmineedtMasiello GuidoedtVenafra SaraothSerio CarmineothMasiello GuidoothBOOK9910639991903321Land Surface Monitoring Based on Satellite Imagery3021582UNINA
