FCVIFluorescence Correction Vegetation Index

VegetationMultispectralCitation Rank #209

Summary

The Fluorescence Correction Vegetation Index (FCVI) is a vegetation spectral index intended for multispectral sensing. It was introduced in 2020; its source is cited as Peiqi Yang, Christiaan van der Tol, Petya K.E. Campbell, & Elizabeth M. Middleton (2020). Fluorescence Correction Vegetation Index (FCVI): A physically based reflectance index to separate physiological and non-physiological information in far-red sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence. Remote Sensing of Environment, 240. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2020.111676 .

Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 34.38th percentile overall, ranking 209 out of 317 indices with citation data. Among the 76 indices published within two years of 2020, it ranks 32 (59.21th percentile). Within the vegetation application domain, it is in the 23.94th percentile and ranks 163 out of 213 indices with citation data. Among the 39 similarly aged vegetation indices, it ranks 16 (61.54th percentile).
