Abstract
To validate terrestrial ecological products of the Global Change Observation Mission-Climate (GCOM-C) satellite, a large-scale ecological observation project "JAXA Super Sites 500" was initiated. The project’s purpose is to obtain the representative leaf area index (LAI), above-ground biomass (AGB), and fraction of absorbed PAR (fAPAR) in the satellite footprint scale. This study aimed to determine the appropriate observation methods in the satellite scale for the target land-cover types such as a deciduous broadleaved forest, evergreen/deciduous needle-leaved forests, and a grassland. As a result of the comparative observations, a combination method using litter-traps and LAI- 2200 was adopted as the LAI observation in a forest, a tree census method was adopted as the AGB observation in a forest, and a clipping method was adopted as the AGB and LAI observations in a grassland. LAI, AGB, and fAPAR were observed and were used to validate the GCOM-C terrestrial ecological products.
