- Soil moisture mapping using Sentinel-1 images: Algorithm and preliminary validation (2013, methodology): “As auxiliary information, the land cover-land use from Globcover was used to select themain classes of land-use forwhich SMC retrieval is not possible (Globcover Product Manual, 2008) (Bicheron et al., 2008).”
- Large‐eddy simulations over Germany using ICON: a comprehensive evaluation (2017, methodology): “Topography (ASTER GDEM Validation Team, 2011), land-use data (GLOBCOVER: Bicheron et al., 2008) and soil-type specifications (Harmonized World Soil Database, HWSD: Smiatek et al., 2015) are used from dedicated high-resolution observational datasets appreciating the high resolution of the simulation…”
- Multi-Model Projections of River Flood Risk in Europe under Global Warming (2018, methodology): “Conversely, ISIMIP and JRC-GL made use of global datasets, namely population density from the Global Human Settlement Layer [34], and land use derived from the GlobCover 2009 at 10 s (∼300 m) resolution [35].”
- Highlighting continued uncertainty in global land cover maps for the user community (2011, methodology): “At 300 m, GlobCover is the finest resolution product available for the year 2005– 2006 (Bicheron et al 2008). This new product is intended to update and complement other existing comparable global products but the higher spatial resolution was also expected to provide improvements in thematic accura”
