Pest Detection in Citrus Orchards Using Sentinel-2: A Case Study on Mealybug (<i>Delottococcus aberiae</i>) in Eastern Spain by Fàtima Della Bellver, Belen Franch Gras, Italo Moletto-Lobos, César José Guerrero Benavent, Alberto San Bautista Primo, Constanza Rubio, Eric Vermote, Sebastien Saunier

“…This can be mitigated by using a Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) model such as the High-Resolution Adjusted BRDF Algorithm (HABA). To study the infested fields separately from healthy ones and avoid mixing fields with very different spectral responses caused by field type, separation between rows, or age, we studied the evolution of each parcel separately using monthly linear regressions, considering the 2017–2018 seasons as a reference when the pest had not developed yet. …”
