A Mixed Data-Based Deep Neural Network to Estimate Leaf Area Index in Wheat Breeding Trials [PDF]
Remote and non-destructive estimation of leaf area index (LAI) has been a challenge in the last few decades as the direct and indirect methods available are laborious and time-consuming.

Evaluation of MODIS LAI/FPAR product Collection 6. Part 2: Validation and intercomparison [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to assess the latest version of the MODIS LAI/FPAR product (MOD15A2H), namely Collection 6 (C6). We comprehensively evaluate this product through three approaches: validation with field measurements, intercomparison with other ...

Investigating the effect of Gotvand Dam on changes in soil salinity and vegetation cover of downstream lands of the dam using satellite imagery and spectral indices [PDF]
Introduction: One of the most important factors that play a major role in reducing soil fertility and agricultural land degradation is soil salinization. Soil salinity problem is more severe in agricultural lands of arid and semi-arid regions.

Prototyping of LAI and FPAR retrievals from MODIS multi-angle implementation of atmospheric correction (MAIAC) data [PDF]
Leaf area index (LAI) and fraction of photosynthetically active radiation (FPAR) absorbed by vegetation are key variables in many global models of climate, hydrology, biogeochemistry, and ecology.

Inconsistencies of interannual variability and trends in long-term satellite leaf area index products [PDF]
Understanding the long-term performance of global satellite leaf area index (LAI) products is important for global change research. However, few effort has been devoted to evaluating the long-term time-series consistencies of LAI products.

C. elegans hermaphrodites are self-fertile, and their rate and temporal pattern of egg-laying are modulated by diverse environmental cues. Egg-laying behavior has served as an important phenotypic assay for the genetic dissection of neuronal signal transduction mechanisms. This chapter reviews our current understanding of the neuronal and neurochemical

LAI based trees selection for mid latitude urban developments: A microclimatic study in Cairo, Egypt [PDF]
To study the leaf area index, LAI, based thermal performance in distinguishing trees for Cairo's urban developments, ENVI-met plants database was used as platform for a foliage modeling parameter, the leaf area density, LAD.

Interannual variability in North American grassland biomass/productivity detected by SeaWinds scatterometer backscatter [PDF]
We analyzed 2000–2004 growing-season SeaWinds Ku-band microwave backscatter and MODIS leaf area index (LAI) data over North America. Large anomalies in mid-growing-season mean backscatter and LAI, relative to 5-year mean values, occurred primarily in the
