Summary
The Chlorophyll Carotenoid Index (CCI) is a vegetation spectral index intended for multispectral sensing. It was introduced in 2016; its source is cited as John A. Gamon, K. Fred Huemmrich, Christopher Y. S. Wong, Ingo Ensminger, Steven Garrity, David Y. Hollinger, Asko Noormets, & Josep Peñuelas (2016). A remotely sensed pigment index reveals photosynthetic phenology in evergreen conifers. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 113(46). https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1606162113 .
Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 57.19th percentile overall, ranking 135 out of 313 indices with citation data. Among the 38 indices published within two years of 2016, it ranks 7 (84.21th percentile). Within the vegetation application domain, it is in the 42.65th percentile and ranks 122 out of 211 indices with citation data. Among the 14 similarly aged vegetation indices, it ranks 4 (78.57th percentile).
