Characterization of Canopy Layering in Forested Ecosystems Using Full Waveform Lidar

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2013
Canopy structure, the vertical distribution of canopy material, is an important element of forest ecosystem dynamics and habitat preference. Although vertical stratification, or “canopy layering,” is a basic characterization of canopy structure for ...

The Productivity of Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) in Kagoshima, Japan, Which Belongs to the Temperate Zone

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
The cultivation period of cassava in Kagoshima, Japan, which belongs to the temperate zone, is limited by the low temperature in winter. To maximize productivity under this limited period, investigations were conducted on the gas exchange rate and ...

Large-scale variation in combined impacts of canopy loss and disturbance on community structure and ecosystem functioning. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ecosystems are under pressure from multiple human disturbances whose impact may vary depending on environmental context. We experimentally evaluated variation in the separate and combined effects of the loss of a key functional group (canopy algae ...

Incorporating canopy structure from simulated GEDI lidar into bird species distribution models

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
The Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) lidar began data acquisition from the International Space Station in March 2019 and is expected to make over 10 billion measurements of canopy structure and topography over two years.

Herbage intake by steers grazing in a natural grassland with predominance of Andropogon lateralis Nees managed under different canopy heights

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2021
: The animal performance on pasture is directly correlated to canopy structure since this influences the herbage consumption. This study was evaluated the effects of four pre-grazing canopy heights (12, 20, 28 and 36 cm) of Andropogon lateralis Ness on ...

Effect of Planting Density on Canopy Structure, Microenvironment, and Yields of Uniformly Sown Winter Wheat

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
A strong canopy structure is central to maximizing yield. The canopy microenvironment, which is related to crop growth and development, reflects changes in a crop’s microclimate. In this study, with the uniform sowing of winter wheat (Triticun aestivum L.
