Long-term spatial distributions and trends of the latent heat fluxes over the global cropland ecosystem using multiple satellite-based models.

Estimating cropland latent heat flux (LE) from continental to global scales is vital to modeling crop production and managing water resources. Over the past several decades, numerous LE models were developed, such as the moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer LE (MOD16) algorithm, revised rem...
