Accuracy Assessment of GEDI Terrain Elevation and Canopy Height Estimates in European Temperate Forests: Influence of Environmental and Acquisition Parameters

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Lidar remote sensing has proven to be a powerful tool for estimating ground elevation, canopy height, and additional vegetation parameters, which in turn are valuable information for the investigation of ecosystems.

Functional QTL mapping and genomic prediction of canopy height in wheat measured using a robotic field phenotyping platform. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Exp Bot, 2020
Genetic studies increasingly rely on high-throughput phenotyping, but the resulting longitudinal data pose analytical challenges. We used canopy height data from an automated field phenotyping platform to compare several approaches to scanning for ...

Under-Canopy UAV Laser Scanning Providing Canopy Height and Stem Volume Accurately [PDF]

open access: yesForests, 2021
The automation of forest field reference data collection has been an intensive research objective for laser scanning scientists ever since the invention of terrestrial laser scanning more than two decades ago. In this study, we demonstrated that an under-canopy UAV laser scanning system utilizing a rotating laser scanner can alone provide accurate ...

ICESat-2 data classification and estimation of terrain height and canopy height

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, 2023
ICESat-2 (Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2) was launched in 2018 with a photon-counting LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) system, ATLAS (Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System). It is collecting massive earth elevation data all over the world, which has shown the potential of large-scale forest monitoring.

Large-eddy simulations of surface roughness parameter sensitivity to canopy-structure characteristics [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2015
Surface roughness parameters, namely the roughness length and displacement height, are an integral input used to model surface fluxes. However, most models assume these parameters to be a fixed property of plant functional type and disregard the ...

Elevation Regimes Modulated the Responses of Canopy Structure of Coastal Mangrove Forests to Hurricane Damage

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Mangrove forests have unique ecosystem functions and services, yet the coastal mangroves in tropics are often disturbed by tropical cyclones. Hurricane Maria swept Puerto Rico and nearby Caribbean islands in September 2017 and caused tremendous damage to

Impact of height heterogeneity on canopy turbulence [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2017
The flow development above and within homogeneous and heterogeneous canopies was experimentally studied using particle image velocimetry in a refractive-index-matching channel. The experiments were designed to gain insight into the effect of height heterogeneity on the structure and spatial distribution of the turbulence.
