Assessment of Light Environment Variability in Broadleaved Forest Canopies Using Terrestrial Laser Scanning

Light availability inside a forest canopy is of key importance to many ecosystem processes, such as photosynthesis and transpiration. Assessment of light availability and within-canopy light variability enables a more detailed understanding of these biophysical processes. The changing light-vegetati...
