Intended use

Energy balance modelling of the soil-plant atmosphere continuum, evapotranspiration of vegetated surfaces, ground truth of other (e.g., airborne or satellite) land surface temperature data.

Use limitations

Surface areas sensed were limited to the surfaces of four large weighing lysimeters that were three meters square.
