Abstract
The effect of rain on the open surface of arable Chernozems is manifes ted in the differentiation of the surface into three structural elemen ts: crusts, grains, and cracks. The net surface reflectance following rainfall is determined by the spatial variation of related areas of th e structural elements and their reflective properties.
