Soil Dryness Indicator
Introduction Vegetation Temperature Condition Index (VTCI) Temperature-Vegetation Dryness Index (TVDI)
- Calculated from Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and
Land Surface Temperature (LST)
- NOAA-AVHRR, MODIS images
- Good correlation with rainfall events and soil moisture
- Applicable to a various geographical scales, from regional (~10,000 km2)
to semi-continental (whole China divided into three parts)
