In-Situ: -data source: SCAN 2027 Little River, GA, U.S.A-sensor depth ; 5cm-sampling method: observed data which has closest timestamp to AMSR-E observation time within 1 hour
AMSR-E: -data source: JAXA product ver.5 Level2 -sampling method: closest FOV to the SCAN point within 5km range.

Summary
• The new global data set of fractional vegetation cover, fc, is introduced into the algorithm
• The roughness parameter calibrated at Mongolia is used in the Ratiative Transfer Model.
• The algorithm validated at Little River and the result showed that the accuracy was improved by comparing the old algorithms.
Near future plan.
• Masking method for uniformly and dense vegetated area.
• Behavior of the algorithm in Sahara
