VegetationRadarCitation Rank #161

Summary

The Dual-Polarized Radar Vegetation Index VV (DpRVIVV) is a vegetation spectral index intended for radar sensing. It was introduced in 2019; its source is cited as Rouhollah Nasirzadehdizaji, Fusun Balik Sanli, Saygin Abdikan, Ziyadin Cakir, Aliihsan Sekertekin, & Mustafa Ustuner (2019). Sensitivity Analysis of Multi-Temporal Sentinel-1 SAR Parameters to Crop Height and Canopy Coverage. Applied Sciences, 9(4). https://doi.org/10.3390/app9040655 .

Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 49.53th percentile overall, ranking 161 out of 317 indices with citation data. Among the 70 indices published within two years of 2019, it ranks 11 (85.71th percentile). Within the vegetation application domain, it is in the 35.68th percentile and ranks 138 out of 213 indices with citation data. Among the 36 similarly aged vegetation indices, it ranks 8 (80.56th percentile).
