| Popis: | Detecting vegetation fluorescence from space would provide new insight on terrestrial biosphere response to climate variability, and help quantifying atmospheric carbon sequestration. This paper outlines technical and scientific studies undertaken for the preparation of the FLEX-Fluorescence Explorer space mission proposed to ESA in the framework of the Earth Explorer Opportunity Missions program. |
