Antarctic biological soil crusts surface reflectance patterns from landsat and sentinel-2 images
Abstract The remote sensing techniques must be used to obtain long-term information in remote areas, like the Antarctic continent, to monitor the environmental productivity and its changes. The aim of this work was to analyze the surface reflectance profile patterns for the Antarctic biological soil...
