Evaluating the surface temperature and vegetation index (Ts/VI) method for estimating surface soil moisture in heterogeneous regions

The surface temperature and vegetation index (Ts/VI) method is a remote sensing-based quantitative approach. It is widely used for estimating the evapotranspiration, evaporative fraction, and surface soil moisture (SSM). However, this method can only be used in flat regions. In this study, we invest...
