N2 - The surface anisotropy, usually described as bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF), plays a key role in the quantitative remote sensing. Numerous BRDF studies are focus on sensors onboard polar-orbiting satellites such as POLDER and MODIS based on multi-angle sensors or accumulative observations through multiple days. Notably, sensors onboard geostationary satellites can also obtain multi-angle reflectances benefited from their high revisit frequencies, while by which only a few BRDF studies have been completed. In this study, we aim to evaluate the BRDF information collected from time-series directional observations of the Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) onboard geostationary satellite Himawari-8. The multi-angle reflectances of 6×7 km POLDER and 0.05°AHI at mixed forest area during a whole month were collected. Generally, AHI has a good weight of Determination (WoD) of 0.03, as well as small fit-RMSEs of 0.0055 and 0.0235 in the red and NIR bands based on the kernel-driven Ross-Li BRDF model, which shows promising potential to provide BRDF information with a good quality.
