Description
Carter2 (Ctr2) is a plant stress index that uses the ratio of reflectance at 695nm (red-edge) to 760nm (near-infrared). This index is particularly effective at detecting stress because it combines the stress-sensitive red-edge region with the NIR region where healthy vegetation shows high reflectance.
