The Advanced Photon Source (APS), a third-generation synchrotron light source, was commissioned in 1995 at Argonne National Laboratory and has been fully operational for beamline users since 1997. The APS storage ring can accommodate up to 68 user beamlines (Figure 1); about 70% of the available beamlines are currently in use by various collaborative access teams (CATs). The 7-GeV synchrotron l...

This article will demonstrate the utility of a thermal-based remote sensing technique for monitoring evapotranspiration (ET), vegetation health/stress, and soil moisture status at local to continental scales. The paper is intended for researchers in a broad range of scientific disciplines – from the biosciences, atmospheric sciences, and hydrology – and also for policy makers in environmental a...
