Vegetation Fractional Cover represents the exposed proportion of Photosynthetic Vegetation (PV), Non-Photosynthetic Vegetation (NPV) and Bare Soil (BS) within each pixel. The sum of the three fraction... mores is 100% (+/- 3%) and shown in Red/Green/Blue colors. In forested canopies the photosynthetic or non-photosynthetic portions of trees may obscure those of the grass layer and/or bare soil. This product is derived from the MODIS Nadir BRDF-Adjusted Reflectance product (MCD43A4) collection 6 and has 500 meters spatial resolution. A suite of derivative products are also produced including monthly fractional cover, total vegetation cover (PV+NPV), and anomaly of total cover against the time series. Monthly: The monthly product is aggregated from the 8-day composites using the medoid method. Anomaly: represents the difference between total vegetation cover (PV+NPV) in a given month and the mean total vegetation cover for that month in all years available, expressed in units of cover. For example, if the mean vegetation cover in January (2001-current year) was 40% and the vegetation cover for the pixel in January 2018 was 30%, the anomaly for the pixel in Jan 2018 would be -10%. Decile: represents the ranking (in ten value intervals) for the total vegetation cover in a given month in relation to the vegetation cover in that month for all years in the time-series. MODIS fractional cover has been validated for Australia. less
DoAWR - Improving the RaPP Map monitoring tool for Australia - - Published 11 Nov 2019
Scientific reference collection of physical samples of Australian soils. There are over 100,000 soil specimens in the collection: 70,000 fully archived and 30,000 stored specimens (still to be archive... mored). The specimen collection reflects the changes in research focus over the last 70 years and expects to continue this into the future. The starting collection, which was received at the founding of the Soil Archive in 2003, has been complemented by more recent submissions from other agencies and current CSIRO projects from a range of Business Units (predominantly Agriculture & Food, Land & Water). Researchers can submit their soil specimens to the Soil Archive. These soil specimens will need to be accompanied by the collected soil data. For more information, see our website. The sub sample collection of the Soil Archive holds 43,000 specimens of fine earth (< 2 mm) (10 gram duplicates of the larger specimens) that are suitable to near-infrared spectroscopic analysis. less
