Forest Inventory Using Forest Canopy Profiles

[Proceedings] IGARSS '92 International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2005
A helicopter-borne 8-channel ranging scatterometer HUTSCAT (Helsinki University of Technology Scatterometer) was used to measure forest canopy profiles (FCP). The FCP data were used in order to determinate the mean and dominant tree height and total volume per hectare.

Forest Canopy Hydraulics

2016
Water and carbon cycles are strongly coordinated and water availability is a primary limiting factor in many terrestrial ecosystems. Photosynthesis requires sufficient water supply to leaves and constraints on delivery at any point in the hydraulic continuum can lead to stomatal closure and reduced photosynthesis.

Canopy Closure Rate and Forest Structure

Ecology, 1997
Natural disturbances produce openings in forest canopies. Gap opening and closure create a mosaic of regenerating phases in the forest, which are a source of environmental heterogeneity, contributing to the maintenance of community diversity. In this study we measured the rate of canopy closure using hemispherical photographs taken in the same points ...

Forest Canopy Stratification—Is It Useful?

The American Naturalist, 2000
It has long been recognized that the forest canopy has a complex structure that is significant for environmental interactions, regeneration, growth, and biotic habitat. Not only is the structure variously complex, but also there are many ways to conceptualize that complexity. Yet the persistent theme when considering the structure of canopies continues

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
