Improvement of FAPAR Estimation Under the Presence of Non-Green Vegetation Considering Fractional Vegetation Coverage

Remote Sensing
The homogeneous turbid medium assumption inherent to the Beer-Lambert’s law can lead to a reduction in the shading effect between leaves when non-green vegetation canopies are present, resulting in an overestimation of the fraction of absorbed ...
