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 31.95th percentile overall, ranking 214 out of 313 indices with citation data. Among the 68 indices published within two years of 2019, it ranks 35 (50th percentile). Within the vegetation application domain, it is in the 22.27th percentile and ranks 165 out of 211 indices with citation data. Among the 34 similarly aged vegetation indices, it ranks 17 (52.94th percentile).
