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:

Estimating Terrain Slope from ICESat-2 Data in Forest Environments
Remote Sensing, 2020 The global digital elevation measurement (DEM) products such as SRTM DEM and GDEM have been widely used for terrain slope retrieval in forests. However, the slope estimation accuracy is generally limited due to the DEMs’ low vertical accuracy over ...
