  1. Agricultural, Water, and Health-Related Satellite Products from NESDIS-STAR Felix Kogan NOAA/NESDIS Center for Satellite Applications and Research October 2010

  2. AVHRR Data for Land Use Sensor: Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) Satellites: NOAA-7, 9, 11, 14, 16, 17 (morn.),18, 19 Data Resolution:Spatial - 4 km (GAC), 8 & 16 km; Temporal - 7-day composite Period: 30-year(1981-2010) Coverage:World (75 N to 55 S) Channels: VIS (ch1), NIR (ch2), Thermal (ch4, ch5)

  3. THEORYVegetation vs. VIS & NIRreflectance

  4. THEORYCrops’ Reflectance (Citrus, Tomatoes, Sorghum, Cotton) NIR reflectance depends on WATER CONTENT CELL STRUCTURE VIS reflectance depends on CHLOROPHYLL CAROTENOID

  5. NDVI & Reflectance NDVI= (Ch2-Ch1)/(Ch2+Ch1)

  6. NDVI & Smoothed NDVI Eliminate high frequency noise Emphasize seasonal cycle Separate medium & low frequency variations

  7. NDVI & Rainfall (% mean), SUDAN 115% 73% 95% 51%

  8. NDVI & BT by Ecosystem Type Central USA

  9. AVHRR PRODUCTS Vegetation condition index (VCI), values 0 - 100 VCI=(NDVI-NDVImin)/(NDVImax-NDVImin) NDVImax, and NDVImin – climatology (1981-2000 maximum and minimum NDVI for a pixel; Temperature condition index (TCI), values 0 - 100 TCI=(BTmax-BTmin)/(BTmax-BTmin) NDVImax, and NDVImin – climatology (1981-2000 maximum and minimum NDVI for a pixel Vegetation Health Index (VHI), values 0 – 100 VHI=a*VCI+(1-a)*TCI 0 – indicates extreme stress 100 – indicates favorable conditions MOISTURE THERMAL VEG.

Vegetation Health and Agriculture, UKRAINE 2002 & 2004 – NOAA-16 satellite identify good vegetation health (green) resulted in high yield 2.75 & 2.84 t/ha t/ha 2.7 2003 – Intensive Drought (red) caused 35% losses in grain yield (1.84 t/ha) versus the years before and after 1.8 ADDRESS: - Ecosystem Health - Agriculture - Food Security 2.8 PLAN Use NOAA/AVHRR Data 4 km resolution

  23. 2007 Drought Dynamics: Focus on Southern RUSSIA & UKRAINE from NOAA-18 Vegetation Health Index (VHI) Beloruss Russia UKRAINE Rumania Bulgaria Georgia Turkey Syria Iraq • Vegetation Health (red) deteriorated from April through the end of the growing season, especially in the main areas of winter wheat • VHI is derived from NOAA/AVHRR data and estimates greenness, vigor and thermal conditions of vegetation
