Mapping and estimating the total living biomass and carbon in low-biomass woodlands using Landsat 8 CDR data

Table 3 Pearson correlation coefficients between spectral variables and TLB (t/ha) of plots (n = 500)

Landsat 8 spectral bands
Coastal	Blue	Green	Red	NIR	SWIR1	SWIR2
−0.43	−0.45	−0.44	−0.48	0.18	−0.38	−0.43

Spectral vegetation indices
NDVI	EVI	SAVI	MSAVI	NDMI	NBR1	NBR2
0.49	0.50	0.49	0.49	0.44	0.45	0.43

Prob > |ρ| under Ho: ρ = 0, and ρ is significant (p < 0.005) for all the spectral variables. The level of confidence α = 0.05
