Forest canopy analysis in the Alpine environment: comparison among assessment methods
Forest canopy analysis in the Alpine environment: comparison among assessment methods. Forest canopy is an important ecological feature of forest stands and can be expressed as Leaf Area Index (LAI) or canopy cover percentage.

Relating the radar backscattering coefficient to leaf-area index [PDF]
The relationship between the radar backscattering coefficient of a vegetation canopy, sigma(0) sub can, and the canopy's leaf area index (LAI) is examined.

Testing four methods to assess leaf area in young olive trees [PDF]
Assessment of leaf area is of fundamental importance to calculate diverse physiological parameters such as the total rate of transpiration or photosynthesis of a plant or its leaf area index (LAI).

Leaf Area Index (LAI) has an important role in defining the health of mangrove forest. Remote sensing images able to estimate mangrove LAI, especially through semi-empirical approach. This approach needs appropriate selection of sample location and value distribution for both modelling and accuracy assessment purposes.

This study aimed to examine the effect of different sowing dates (5 March and 26 March) in early spring and plant densities (40, 60, 80, 100 seeds/m2) on plant growth and development under rainfed conditions in semiarid areas over six harvest times on ...

Vegetation density as deduced from ERTS-1 MSS response [PDF]
Reflectance from vegetation increases with increasing vegetation density in the 0.75- to 1.35 micron wavelength interval. Therefore, ERTS-1 bands 6 (0.7 to 0.8 micron) and 7 (0.8 to 1.1 micron) contain information that should relate to the probable yield

Spectral estimates of solar radiation intercepted by corn canopies [PDF]
Reflectance factor data were acquired with a Landsat band radiometer throughout two growing seasons for corn (Zea mays L.) canopies differing in planting dates, populations, and soil types. Agronomic data collected included leaf area index (LAI), biomass,

Tropical Dry Forest Succession and the Contribution of Lianas to Wood Area Index (WAI) [PDF]
The transmission and interception of light through the canopy is an important indicator of forest productivity in tropical forest ecosystems, and the amount of light that eventually reaches the forest floor is influenced by its interactions with leaves ...

Remote sensing of the seasonal variation of coniferous forest structure and function [PDF]
One of the objectives of the Oregon Transect Ecosystem Research (OTTER) project is the remotely sensed determination of the seasonal variation of leaf area index (LAI) and absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (APAR).
