Utilizing Vegetation and Environmental New Micro Spacecraft (VENµS) Data to Estimate Live Fuel Moisture Content in Israel's Mediterranean Ecosystems

Increasing fire activity in Mediterranean ecosystems necessitates the development of new methods to quantify fire risk. Fire risk is strongly affected by live fuel moisture content (LFMC) in plants. Unfortunately, LFMC is time-consuming to measure in-situ. Remote sensing is a promising alternative t...
