Forest Canopy Structural Properties

2008
The forest canopy is the interface between the land and the atmosphere, fixing atmospheric carbon into biomass and releasing oxygen and water. The arrangement of individual trees, differences in species morphology, the availability of light and soil nutrients, and many other factors determine canopy structure.

Radiometry of forest canopies

Science Intensive Technologies
The work is devoted to satellite microwave radiometric methods, which are of great scientific and practical interest for studies of tropical, temperate and boreal forests. Task: It is to assess the relevance and technological priorities of satellite microwave radiometry in relation to monitoring environmental and climatic processes occurring in forest

Forest canopy transformation of atmospheric deposition

Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 1988
Solute fluxes to the ground in open plots and under the forest canopy of different species were investigated in a number of long-term ecosystem studies in West Germany. From the canopy flux balance, rates of interception deposition and canopy/deposition interactions were assessed. Chemically, both open precipitation and throughfall are dilute solutions

Microwave scattering from forest canopies

Proceedings of IGARSS '94 - 1994 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2002
In modeling the scattering for forest canopies at microwave frequencies, several scattering mechanism are usually taken into account: 1) crown volume scattering, 2) trunk volume scattering, 3) surface scattering from forest floor, 4) trunk-surface interaction, 5) trunk-crown interaction, 6) crown-ground interaction.

The Forest Canopy: Herbivores

1966
There Is A magnificent Polish epic poem, Pan Tadeusz by Adam Mickiewicz, in which a wild forest is the background to the story. Part of it is called ‘The Forest Community’ and the first seven lines of this run as follows: Those woods of Lithuania — who has dared explore Their depths abysmal, penetrate their midmost core?

Modeling forest canopy heights: The effects of canopy shape

Remote Sensing of Environment, 1997
Abstract Three-dimensional models that represent the top-of-canopy forest height structure were developed to simulate airborne laser profiling responses along forested transects. The simulator which produced these 3-D models constructed individual tree crowns according to a tree's total height, height to first branch, crown diameter, and crown shape (

Canopy Structure of the Forest

2003
In order to assess herbivory rates (see Chap. 11) and also to calculate the effect of foliage removal on canopy carbon and water relations (see Chaps. 12 and 14), it is necessary to gain sufficient information on the amount of foliage present and its arrangement in space.

Forest Canopy Collection of Trichoptera

1987
Trichoptera were saved from canopy collections of insects, obtained by spraying mixed hardwoods and pines in a second growth tree stand in lowland Connecticut, U.S.A. Trichoptera were found in 105 collections, belonging to 10 families, 22 genera and 32 species. All of the species encountered had been found in light trap captures made at ground level in
