    Article about the Spectral Variation Hypothesis

    The author of the article is Michele Torresani. Introduction to the Spectral Variation Hypothesis (SVH) The Spectral Variation Hypothesis (SVH) was introduced two decades ago as a way to connect biodiversity and the spatial patterns observed in remote sensing data, specifically in terms of spectral heterogeneity (SH). The hypothesis suggests that areas with high SH…
