Description
Atmosphere-Land Exchange Inverse / Disaggregation of the Atmosphere-Land Exchange Inverse (ALEXI/DisALEXI)
DisALEXI was recently ported to Google Earth Engine as part of the OpenET framework and the baseline ALEXI/DisALEXI model structure is described by Anderson et al. (2012, 2018). The ALEXI evapotranspiration (ET) model specifically uses time differential land surface temperature (LST) measurements from geostationary or moderate resolution polar orbiting platforms to generate regional ET maps. DisALEXI then disaggregates the regional ALEXI ET to finer scales using Landsat data (30 m; biweekly) to resolve individual farm fields and other landscape features. Additional information
