Abstract

Evaluates relationship between NDVI (nomalized difference vegetation index) and above-ground biomass, between maximum NDVI and end-of-growing season biomass; and between the integral of the NDVI curve or NDVI increments overtime and actual biomass. Describes atmospheric interference and technical problems affecting the special vegetation index.
