Increasing cropping options in seasonal floodplain wetlands of Sub-Saharan Africa: a remote-sensing approach for assessing available green water for cultivation [Abstract only] por Ayyad, S., Karimi, P., Langensiepen, M., Ribbe, L., Rebelo, Lisa-Maria, Becker, M.

“…Results showed that the WaPOR land cover product reliably identified cropland areas in Kilombero, followed by CGLS-LC, while ESA-CCI largely miss-captured the cropland extent and MCD12Q1 did not capture almost any cropland areas. Estimates of the AET ensemble mean product of 2.6 mm/day were comparable with previously reported values in Kilombero cropland (2.05–2.74 mm/day) and were correlated with NDVI (MOD13Q1) on the monthly basis (R² = 0.58; p <0.05), demonstrating the good performance of the AET ensemble mean product. …”
