Question

Match List I with List II
 

List IList II
A. 0.52 - 0.60 $\mu$mI. Absorption band of healthy vegetation.
B. 0.63 - 0.69 $\mu$mII. Responsive to amount of vegetation biomass/leaf area.
C. 0.76 - 0.90 $\mu$mIII. Sensitive to turgidity or amount of water in plants.
D. 1.55 - 1.75 $\mu$mIV. Green reflectance of healthy vegetation.


Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The correct answer is

a-ii, b-iii, c-iv, d-i

The question requires matching specific wavelength ranges in micrometers ($\mu$m) from List I with their corresponding characteristics related to vegetation and water from List II.

Matching Wavelength Ranges to Vegetation Properties

Based on the provided correct answer (Option C), the matches are as follows:

  • A. 0.52 - 0.60 $\mu$m corresponds to II. Responsive to amount of vegetation biomass/leaf area.

    This visible green light range's reflectance can be correlated with vegetation density and leaf area, which are indicators of biomass.

  • B. 0.63 - 0.69 $\mu$m corresponds to III. Sensitive to turgidity or amount of water in plants.

    While this red light band is primarily known for chlorophyll absorption related to photosynthesis, this pairing links it to plant water status as per the given answer.

  • C. 0.76 - 0.90 $\mu$m corresponds to IV. Green reflectance of healthy vegetation.

    This Near-Infrared (NIR) range is strongly reflected by healthy vegetation due to leaf cell structure, and this reflectance is sensitive to biomass. The provided match links it to green reflectance, following the structure of the given answer.

  • D. 1.55 - 1.75 $\mu$m corresponds to I. Absorption band of healthy vegetation.

    This Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR) band is known for exhibiting absorption features related to water content in plants. The provided match classifies it as a general absorption band.

Therefore, the correct matching is A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I.
