However, monitoring the frequency and locality of this practice poses a major challenge, as these events are typically unreported. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the utility of Sentinel-2 imagery for the detection of EOM amendments. Specifically, we investigated the spectral shift resulting from GWC and manure application at two spatial scales, satellite and proximal. At the satellite scale, multispectral Sentinel-2 image pairs were analyzed before and after EOM application to six cultivated fields in the Versailles Plain, France. At the proximal scale, multi-temporal spectral field measurements were taken of experimental plots consisting of 14 total treatments: EOM variety, amendment quantity (15, 30 and 60 t.ha\u22121) and tillage. The Sentinel-2 images showed significant spectral differences before and after EOM application. Exogenous Organic Matter Indices (EOMI) were developed and analyzed for separative performance. The best performing index was EOMI2, using the B4 and B12 Sentinel-2 spectral bands. At the proximal scale, simulated Sentinel-2 reflectance spectra, which were created using field measurements, successfully monitored all EOM treatments for three days, except for the buried green waste compost at a rate of 15 t.ha\u22121.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13091616","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,21]],"date-time":"2021-04-21T21:25:10Z","timestamp":1619040310000},"page":"1616","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Potential of Sentinel-2 Satellite Images for Monitoring Green Waste Compost and Manure Amendments in Temperate Cropland"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Maxence","family":"Dodin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"UMR ECOSYS, AgroParisTech, INRAE, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, 78850 Thiverval-Grignon, France"}]},{"given":"Hunter D.","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UMR ECOSYS, AgroParisTech, INRAE, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, 78850 Thiverval-Grignon, France"},{"name":"Agronomy Department, University of Florida, P.O.
