We used the Eddy covariancelight use efficiency (EC-LUE) model for estimating GPP in the Great Plains, United States in order to evaluate the performance of this model. We developed a novel algorithm for computing the photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) based on net radiation. A strong correlation (R2=0.94,N=24) was found between daily PAR and Landsat-based mid-day instantaneous net radiation. Though the Moderate Resolution Spectroradiometer (MODIS) based instantaneous net radiation was in better agreement (R2=0.98,N=24) with the daily measured PAR, there was no statistical significant difference between Landsat based PAR and MODIS based PAR. The EC-LUE model validation also confirms the need to consider biological attributes (C3 versus C4 plants) for potential light use efficiency. A universal potential light use efficiency is unable to capture the spatial variation of GPP. It is necessary to use C3 versus C4 based land use/land cover map for using EC-LUE model for estimating spatiotemporal distribution of GPP.", "description": "063522", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "SPIE" }, "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Liu, Shu-Guang sliu@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Shu-Guang", "familyName": "Liu", "email": "sliu@usgs.gov", "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center (Geography)", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eros" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Tieszen, Larry L. tieszen@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Larry L.", "familyName": "Tieszen", "email": "tieszen@usgs.gov" }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Singh, Ramesh K. rsingh@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Ramesh K.", "familyName": "Singh", "email": "rsingh@usgs.gov", "identifier": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0002-8164-3483", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8164-3483" }, "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center (Geography)", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eros" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Suyker, Andrew E.", "givenName": "Andrew E.", "familyName": "Suyker" }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Verma, Shashi B.", "givenName": "Shashi B.", "familyName": "Verma" } ], "funder": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eros" } ], "spatialCoverage": [ { "@type": "Place", "additionalType": "country", "name": "United States", "url": "https://geonames.org/4074035" }, { "@type": "Place", "geo": [ { "@type": "GeoShape", "additionalProperty": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "GeoJSON", "value": { "type": "FeatureCollection", "features": [ { "type": "Feature", "properties": {}, "geometry": { "type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [ [ [ 172.5, 18.9 ], [ 172.5, 71.4 ], [ -66.9, 71.4 ], [ -66.9, 18.9 ], [ 172.5, 18.9 ] ] ] } } ] } } }, { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": 45.150000000000006, "longitude": 52.800000000000004 } ] } ] }
