A Relationship Between Blue and Near‐IR Global Spectral Reflectance and the Response of Global Average Reflectance to Change in Cloud Cover Observed From EPIC
Abstract We performed a detailed analysis of Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) spectral data. We found that the vector composed of blue and near‐infrared (NIR) reflectance follows a counterclockwise closed‐loop trajectory from 0 to 24 UTC as Earth rotates. This nonlinear relationship was not...
