NSDSI1Normalized Shortwave-Infrared Difference Bare Soil Moisture Index 1

SoilMultispectralCitation Rank #203

Summary

The Normalized Shortwave-Infrared Difference Bare Soil Moisture Index 1 (NSDSI1) is a soil spectral index intended for multispectral sensing. It was introduced in 2019; its source is cited as Jibo Yue, Jia Tian, Qingjiu Tian, Kaijian Xu, & Nianxu Xu (2019). Development of soil moisture indices from differences in water absorption between shortwave-infrared bands. ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, 154. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.isprsjprs.2019.06.012 .

Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 35.46th percentile overall, ranking 203 out of 313 indices with citation data. Among the 68 indices published within two years of 2019, it ranks 28 (60.29th percentile). Within the soil application domain, it is in the 58.82th percentile and ranks 8 out of 17 indices with citation data. Among the 8 similarly aged soil indices, it ranks 4 (62.5th percentile).
