Retrieving Leaf Area Index (LAI) Using Remote Sensing: Theories, Methods and Sensors

The ability to accurately and rapidly acquire leaf area index (LAI) is an indispensable component of process-based ecological research facilitating the understanding of gas-vegetation exchange phenomenon at an array of spatial scales from the leaf to the landscape. However, LAI is difficult to direc...
