Canopy Interception for a Tallgrass Prairie under Juniper Encroachment. [PDF]
Rainfall partitioning and redistribution by canopies are important ecohydrological processes underlying ecosystem dynamics. We quantified and contrasted spatial and temporal variations of rainfall redistribution for a juniper (Juniperus virginiana ...

Model Construction of Rainfall Interception by Maize Canopy
Rainfall is the main water source of crops. Crops maintain their normal growth and development by absorbing water from the soil. However, the role of rainfall is often overestimated in water resource evaluation and farmland water balance research because

Important Airborne Lidar Metrics of Canopy Structure for Estimating Snow Interception
Forest canopies exert significant controls over the spatial distribution of snow cover. Canopy snow interception efficiency is controlled by intrinsic processes (e.g., canopy structure), extrinsic processes (e.g., meteorological conditions), and the ...

The Importance of Using Realistic 3D Canopy Models to Calculate Light Interception in the Field
Quantifying canopy light interception provides insight into the effects of plant spacing, canopy structure, and leaf orientation on radiation distribution. This is essential for increasing crop yield and improving product quality.

CANOPY ARCHITECTURE AND RADIATION INTERCEPTION MEASUREMENTS IN OLIVE [PDF]
In this work we tested techniques suitable for a future validation of the RATP model to simulate transpiration and photosynthesis of mature olive trees under field conditions. Canopy architecture was characterised with an electromagnetic 3D digitiser and the software 3A.
