“This paper summarizes new achievements in developing and distributing the Global Landsat Level-3 Evapotranspiration (ET) product. It is freely available through the USGS EROS Science Processing Architecture (ESPA) platform (2nd link above). 🛰️ …
Since the product launch in June 2020, there have been over 1.2 million Landsat-based ET orders around the world. This indicates increasing awareness and application of the ET data to help understand and manage the relationships among food, energy, and water resources. 🌽💧 …
It features the ESPA workflow and evaluation of the upgraded SSEBop model using a variety of observational datasets and hydrologic regions, and examination against OpenET SSEBop platform implementation (3rd link above.)…”

“HIGHLIGHTS
• ESPA platform allows access to on-demand, global, Landsat-based, ET products.
• SSEBop model has been used to create ET data since 1982 through ESPA.
• A quick estimation of field-scale crop consumptive water use can be achieved.
• Numerous orders reflect worldwide extensive interest and utilization of the data.
• Method, workflow, and performance of the actual ET data are presented in the study..."

Enhancements To The USGS Landsat Level 2 Surface Temperature And Emissivity Product For Collection3 Reprocessing

“HIGHLIGHTS:
• C3 advances Landsat TIR atmospheric correction, emissivity correction, and uncertainty estimates.
• C3 enables global surface temperature products, including polar regions.
• C3 retrievals improve accuracy and consistency across validation sites.
• Split window and single channel methods diverge at extreme temperature conditions.
• C3 and Landsat 10 support multi-decadal climate monitoring.
ABSTRACT: The Landsat program provides the longest continuous global record of thermal infrared observations of the Earth's surface, underpinning critical applications in climate monitoring, water resources, ecosystem dynamics, urban heat analysis, and natural hazard assessment. The release of a global inventory of Landsat Collection 2 Level 2 surface temperature products by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) marked a major milestone in operational provision of Landsat thermal infrared analysis-ready data. Ongoing validations and community uses of Collection 2 have identified opportunities to further improve accuracy, uncertainty characterization, and emissivity correction across diverse atmospheric and surface conditions. In preparation for the planned Landsat Collection 3 reprocessing of the Landsat data record in the late 2020s, the USGS is implementing a coordinated set of enhancements to the Level 2 surface temperature products. These include revised emissivity estimation that leverages external datasets, improved atmospheric characterization and uncertainty propagation, expanded dynamic range for high temperature targets, consideration of split window atmospheric correction algorithm for Landsat 8 and 9, and decoupling of thermal infrared processing from visible to shortwave infrared constraints to enable surface temperature retrievals under low or no solar illumination conditions. These changes are designed to improve product quality and consistency across the Landsat record. Beyond near-term performance gains, the Collection 3 design establishes a scalable processing architecture to accommodate the expanded spectral and radiometric measurement capabilities of the forthcoming Landsat 10 mission. By preserving continuity across the Landsat 4–9 record while enabling future algorithm evolution, Landsat Collection 3 will provide a foundation for long-term, multi-decadal Earth system thermal infrared observations…”
