Figure 4

Scatter plots between MODIS-derived estimates of the blue-sky albedo and ground-based measurements of the albedo for the MODIS bands. (a) Band 1 (620–670 nm), (b) Band 2 (841–876 nm), (c) Band 3 (459–479 nm), (d) Band 4 (545–565 nm), (e) Band 5 (1230–1250 nm), (f) Band 6 (1628–1652 nm), and (g) Band 7 (2105–2155 nm). Each dot stands for the comparison at a measurement site. Correlation coefficients R are shown in the plots. Plots were generated by using Python’s Matplotlib Library44.
