Net radiation estimation under pasture and forest in rondônia, Brazil, with TM landsat 5 images

The main objective of this study is to obtain the spatial distribution of net radiation (RN) in two contrasting vegetation covers (forest and pasture) through the SEBAL algorithm, and to analyze its performance when applied to tropical humid atmospheric conditions. This study was conducted in the st...
