Summary: The CAMEL V002 product offers global monthly infrared land surface emissivity and uncertainty, with its climatology providing a stable representation of monthly emissivity. The use of the CAMEL V002 climatology helps mitigate processing errors from MODIS MxD11 emissivity, and improved stability is expected in CAMEL Version 3 with the incorporation of new emissivity products.

Summary: Information on spectral emissivity is crucial for retrieving and evaluating land surface temperature estimates from remote sensing. Differences in SE measurements have a significant impact on satellite LST estimation. The study suggests that variations in SE measurements derived from laboratory setups may be larger than previously assumed.

Summary: Satellite observations of nighttime lights are widely used to estimate human activities, but the uncertainty is mainly influenced by view-illumination geometry and atmospheric effects. There are challenges in addressing errors and improving detection quality, but a consistent NTL time series record can still be generated.

Summary: A novel feature-band linear-format hybrid (FebLihy) algorithm combining deep neural network (DNN) model and physical model was proposed for simultaneous retrieval of atmospheric parameters, land surface temperature (LST), and emissivity from thermal hyperspectral remote sensing data. The algorithm showed promising results in terms of accuracy and effectiveness in both simulation and real data experiments. Future studies will focus on further optimizing the model and data for improved performance.

Summary: This study proposed a new method for simultaneously retrieving 250-m LST and LSE from the TIR measurements of MERSI-II onboard a Chinese FengYun-3D (FY-3D) satellite. Validation results using ground measurements and cross-validation showed that the proposed method can accurately retrieve LST and LSE, which can facilitate their applications in relevant fields.

Summary: By modifying the surface absorptivity of uncooled TIR sensors, thermal drift can be reduced and accuracy can be improved. The foil-shielded sensor yielded higher temperature accuracy compared to the matte black sensor. Additionally, there were positive correlations between light intensity and air temperature changes and sensor accuracy, with changes in surface absorptivity affecting these relationships.

Summary: Background floral temperature is crucial for plant biology, and thermography is increasingly used to measure floral temperature. However, there is a lack of published estimates of floral emissivity. Researchers often rely on emissivity estimates from vegetative plant tissue, but it is unclear how appropriate and accurate these estimates are for floral tissue.

Summary: Hasandag is a double-peaked long-dormant volcano with poorly known volcanic risk. Through thermal remote sensing analysis, weak fumaroles and water vapor emissions were observed on the western flank of the volcano. Statistical analysis of long-term temperature data and comparison with meteorological data revealed temporal thermal anomalies. The thermal radiation characteristics and its dependence on the volcano's structure were investigated using thermal remote sensing techniques. It is recommended to establish a permanent ground-based thermal observation station for direct and remote thermal monitoring of the volcano's fumarole zone.
