Foliar area measurement by a new technique that utilizes the conservative nature of fresh leaf surface density [PDF]
International Agrophysics Vol. 28, Issue 4, pp. 413-421, 2014, 2012 Leaf area LA, is a plant biometric index important to agroforestry and crop production. Previous works have demonstrated the conservativeness of the inverse of the product of the fresh leaf density and thickness, the so-called Hughes constant, K. We use this fact to develop LAMM, an absolute method of LA measurement, i.e.
