AMSRE 6.9 GHz Land Surface Temperature (LUT) on May 25, 2003 Land surface temperature derived using AMSR-E 6.9 GHz H and V Polarization. We also have compared the differences among different approaches and channels and MODIS Aqua LST, The atmospheric effect, in emissivity vary differently depending on the channels. In the arctic environment, the upper layers of soil are frozen, and the thermal inertia of below-ground (permafrost) effect develops low soil temperature. Our model produces reliable soil temperature using microwave data. AMSR-E 6.9 and 36.6 GHz channels are sensitive to temperature change.
