Canopy Chlorophyll Content Inversion of Mountainous Heterogeneous Grasslands Based on the Synergy of Ground Hyperspectral and Sentinel-2 Data: A New Vegetation Index Approach by Yi Zheng, Yao Wang, Tayir Aziz, Ali Mamtimin, Yang Li, Yan Liu

“…The results indicated the following: (1) DRECAVI demonstrated the highest accuracy in CCC retrieval for mountainous vegetation (R² = 0.74, RMSE = 16.79, MAE = 12.50) compared to other VIs and hybrid methods, effectively mitigating saturation effects in high biomass areas and capturing a weak bimodal distribution pattern of CCC in the montane meadow. (2) The blue band B1 enhances atmospheric correction robustness by suppressing aerosol scattering, and the red-edge band B7 overcomes the sensitivity limitations of conventional red-edge indices (such as NDVI705, CIred-edge, and NDRE), demonstrating the potential application of the synergy mechanism between the blue band and the red-edge band. (3) Although the S2BP achieved high accuracy (R² = 0.73, RMSE = 19.83, MAE = 14.71) without saturation effects and detected a bimodal distribution of CCC in the montane meadow of the study area, its algorithmic complexity hindered large-scale operational applications. …”
