  • Abstract
    This paper presents a new approach to aggregate spatially distributed land surface heat fluxes and landscape characteristics, adopting a probabilistic point of view and using remote sensing data. This method is tested in the Marrakech plain (Morocco), with different remote sensing sensors, and different probabilistic approaches, in order to reach the best evaluation of large scale heat fluxes and characteristics probability distributions.
