Leaf area index retrieval with ICESat-2 photon counting LiDAR
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021 This is the first study to inverse leaf area index (LAI) with photon counting LiDAR (i.e., Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2/Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System, ICESat-2/ATLAS). A new framework composed of three major steps was applied:
