+<b>CI: Crust Index</b> 
+<p>
+Advantage is taken of a unique spectral feature of soil biogenic
+crust containing cyanobacteria. It has been shown that the special phycobilin
+pigment in cyanobacteria contributes in producing a relatively higher re ̄ ectance
+in the blue spectral region than the same type of substrate without the
+biogenic crust. The spectral crust index (CI) is based on
+the normalized difference between the RED and the BLUE spectral values (Karnieli, 1997).
