Reliability of MODIS Evapotranspiration Products for Heterogeneous Dry Forest: A Study Case of Caatinga

Figure 3

Monthly variation of all input parameters used in the SAFER algorithm for the year of 2012 in an area of Caatinga at Embrapa Semiárido, which is a research station of the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. NDVI, albedo, and Surface Temperature are presented as monthly mean of all available data and evapotranspiration is the monthly mean of all available data multiplied by the number of days in that month.
