Summary
The Enhanced Bloom Index (EBI) is a vegetation spectral index intended for multispectral sensing. It was introduced in 2019; its source is cited as Bin Chen, Yufang Jin, & Patrick Brown (2019). An enhanced bloom index for quantifying floral phenology using multi-scale remote sensing observations. ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, 156. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.isprsjprs.2019.08.006 .
Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 32.18th percentile overall, ranking 216 out of 317 indices with citation data.
