S2ToolBox Level 2 products: LAI, FAPAR, FCOVER. Version 2.1
This ATBD (Algorithm Theoretical Based Document) describes the proposed algorithm for Level 2 products that is implemented in the SENTINEL2 Toolbox. The level2 products are derived from SENTINEL2 top of canopy normalized reflectance data and correspond to the following set of biophysical variables: LAI, (Leaf Area Index) FAPAR (fraction of absorbed ...

DIRECT ESTIMATION OF ABOVEGROUND FOREST PRODUCTIVITY THROUGH HYPERSPECTRAL REMOTE SENSING OF CANOPY NITROGEN [PDF]
The concentration of nitrogen in foliage has been related to rates of net photosynthesis across a wide range of plant species and functional groups and thus represents a simple and biologically meaningful link between terrestrial cycles of carbon and ...
