Modelling and Comparing Shading Effects of 3D Tree Structures with Virtual Leaves

Reduced solar radiation brought about by trees on agricultural land can both positively and negatively affect crop growth. For a better understanding of this issue, we aim for an improved simulation of the shade cast by trees in agroforestry systems and a precise estimation of insolation reduction....
