Remote Sensing of Leaf Area Index (LAI) and Other Vegetation Parameters

Remote Sensing of Leaf Area Index (LAI) and Other Vegetation Parameters

Monitoring of vegetation structure and functioning is critical to modeling terrestrial ecosystems and energy cycles. In particular, leaf area index (LAI) is an important structural property of vegetation used in many land surface vegetation, climate, and crop production models. Canopy structure (LAI...
