A Three-Dimensional Index for Characterizing Crop Water Stress

A Three-Dimensional Index for Characterizing Crop Water Stress

The application of remotely sensed estimates of canopy minus air temperature (Tc-Ta) for detecting crop water stress can be limited in semi-arid regions, because of the lack of full ground cover (GC) at water-critical crop stages. Thus, soil background may restrict water stress interpretation by the...
