SVAT models
1-Classical Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere Transfer (SVAT) model :
ISBA (Noilhan and Planton 1989)
• physical model, energy balance, water balance
• land surface scheme of the Météo-France weather forecast model and atmospheric general circulation model
2-SVAT model with interactive vegetation :
ISBA-Ags (Calvet et al. 1998)
• vegetation carbon balance (interaction photosynthesis-stomatal conductance)
• simple LAI / biomass parametrisation
Crop model
Crop models : STICS (Brisson et al. 1998):
• generic crop model (wheat, corn, sorghum, soybean, sunflower, forage, tomato, banana, sugar cane, grape...)
• modular description of phenology biomass production water balance nitrogen balanceproduction quality ...
Some results with the ISBA model→ uncalibrated → inputs = meteorological data, crop LAI and height→ basic knowledge on soil (texture, wilting point, field capacity)→ standard vegetation parameters (albedo, minimum stomatal res.)

Radiative transfer models
Solar and thermal domains : original models or Beer law type formulations calibrated against radiative transfer models :
• Solar domain : SAIL-2M (Weiss et al. 2001)and Myneni (Myneni et al. 1992),
• Thermal infrared domain : SAIL-T (Olioso 1992, Chelle et al. 2001)
Microwave domain : water cloud type models (+ IEM soil model)
• active and passive microwave (L, X and C bands)• calibrated against more physical radiative transfer
models derived by Wigneron et al. (1993, 1997)

Comparison to ground information
Concluding remarks• SVAT models may be used in combination with remote sensing data for monitoring evapotranspiration of irrigated crops.
• Similar studies are undergoing using crop models (but the problem is more complex: very large number of input parameters).
• Various methods for assimilating remote sensing data may be used (depending on the type of data and model, the information to retrieve…)
• They are many advantages of using SVAT or crop models, e.g.:
• continuous estimation of evapotranspiration over the crop cycle(instead of snapshot images with classical mapping methods)
[‘self’ interpolation between Earth observation satellite images(TM, SPOT) which have a good spatial resolution but a bad temporal resolution]
[they may be used when no remote sensing data is available and in a predictive mode]
• close results may be obtained using any type of classical remote sensing data (reflectances, Ts, radar)
[evapotranspiration for stressed crop may be obtained without thermal infrared because of the interaction between water stress and crop growth]
• crop and SVAT models simulate not only evapotranspiration, but also plant transpiration, soil moisture, crop production…
[crop models are already used for production assessment, irrigation and nitrogen management]
SVAT or crop models also have drawbacks, e.g.:
• large number of parameters to retrieve
[ISBA has between 10 and 15 important parameters; crop models have a lot more]
• continuous monitoring of meteorological data is required
• assimilation may be very sensitive to the accuracy of remote sensing data
• when applied over large area, it may be difficult to have information on the soil, the plant type…
• a large computing power is required for running models over large area; this may be increased several times for assimilation
