Variation of specific leaf area and upscaling to leaf area index in mature Scots pine

Trees, 2006
Reliable and objective estimations of specific leaf area (SLA) and leaf area index (LAI) are essential for accurate estimates of the canopy carbon gain of trees. The variation in SLA with needle age and position in the crown was investigated for a 73-year-old Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) stand in the Belgian Campine region.

Specific leaf area and leaf area index distribution in a young Douglas-fir plantation

Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 1986
The spatial distribution of specific leaf area and leaf area index of needles in different age classes has been investigated in a young and unthinned Douglas-fir (Pseudotsugamenziesii (Mirb.) Franco) plantation in Central Italy through the destructive analysis of 12 trees sampled in four diameter size classes.

Indirect Estimation of Leaf Area Index in VSP-Trained Grapevines Using Plant Area Index

American Journal of Enology and Viticulture, 2013
Leaf area index (LAI) and canopy structure are important parameters affecting grape quality and yield of grapevines. Two different experimental protocols as well as the average LAI value of the different protocols for indirect estimation of LAI by gap fraction analysis in VSP-trained grapevines (Vitis vinifera L. cv. Riesling) were tested in this study

Leaf area index mapping in northern Canada

International Journal of Remote Sensing, 2011
In this study, a new LAI algorithm was developed with particular emphasis over northern Canada using a much finer resolution of remotely sensed data and in situ measurements collected over a wide range of northern arctic vegetation. A statistical relationship was developed between the in situ LAI measurements collected over vegetation plots in northern

Estimating leaf area index from satellite data

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 1993
A method for estimating leaf area index from visible and near infrared measurements of vegetation above a soil background is applied to a Landsat Thematic Mapper data set. Some constants required for the procedure are inferred from the scattergram of data values.

Improving regional winter wheat yield estimation through assimilation of phenology and leaf area index from remote sensing data

European Journal of Agronomy, 2018
Crop yield estimation at regional scale using crop model is generally subjected to large uncertainties from insufficient spatial information on heterogeneous growth environment and agronomic management practices.

Vegetative Development: Total Leaf Area and Surface Area Indexes

2010
Canopy management determines canopy shape and spatial leaf area distribution which in turn determines vineyard productivity. There are two indexes evaluating vineyard productivity which involve leaf development: total leaf area – LAI – and external leaf area – SA –. The first one refers to total leaf area developed per m2 of soil while SA refers to the

ESTIMATION OF LEAF AREA INDEX IN SOME BREBA FIG CULTIVARS

Acta Horticulturae, 2008
Determination of leaf area index which is a key factor in many physiological processes in plants plays a crucial role. Despite the difficulty of measurement, without a suitable instrument it is quite time consuming and destructive. The exact measurement of leaf area index requires the measurement of the total leaf area of the canopy.

Simple method for retrieving leaf area index from Landsat using MODIS leaf area index products as reference

Journal of Applied Remote Sensing, 2012
Leaf area index (LAI) is a key parameter in most land surface models. Models that operate at multiple spatial scales may require consistent LAI inputs at different spatial resolutions or from different sensors. For example, the atmosphere-land exchange inverse model and associated disaggregation algorithm (DisALEXI) use the moderate resolution imaging ...
