Measurement of radiant interception of crop canopies with the LAI-2000 plant canopy analyzer [PDF]
The performance of the plant canopy analyzer (PCA), model LAI-2000 (LI-COR, Lincoln, NE, USA), has been tested in two separate field trials for 18 annual crop and pasture species.

Response of LAI-2000 estimates to changes in plant surface area index in a Scots pine stand [PDF]
We assessed the accuracy with which the LAI-2000 plant canopy analyzer measured changes in leaf area index (LAI) and plant area index (PAI) in a 25-year-old Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) stand. Stand density was 2100 stems ha(-1) and mean tree height was 8.7 m.

Evaluation and correction of optically derived leaf area index in different temperate forests
In recent years optical techniques for rapid LAI measurements have been developed, but few studies have been performed to evaluate the accuracy of optical estimation of LAI in mixed deciduous-evergreen forest stands.

Ground cover and leaf area index relationship in a grass, legume and crucifer crop
Canopy characterization is essential for describing the interaction of a crop with its environment. The goal of this work was to determine the relationship between leaf area index (LAI) and ground cover (GC) in a grass, a legume and a crucifer crop, and ...

COMPARING OPTICALAND DIRECT METHODS FOR LEAFAREA INDEX DETERMINATION IN A MAIZE CROP
Leaf area index (LAI) is a crucial variable in the modelling of many hydrological processes. Destructive sampling of LAI is extremely time-consuming, thus not suitable for monitoring temporal/spatial variations of the variable.

The Impact of Non-Photosynthetic Vegetation on LAI Estimation by NDVI in Mixed Grassland
Leaf area index (LAI) is widely used for algorithms and modelling in the field of ecology and land surface processes. At a global scale, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) products generated by different remote sensing satellites, have ...
