LAI determination in dune vegetation: a comparison of different techniques [PDF]
Research was conducted in the nature reserve De Westhoek (De Panne, Belgium) in order to determine leaf-area-index (LAI) in different dune vegetation types by both direct (destructively) and indirect optical measurements.

Oat varieties for organic systems [PDF]
Oats are valuable crop in organic rotations owing to their good nutrient use efficiency and weed competitive ability. Although Leaf Area Index is linked to height, varieties with high LAI but short height would confer good weed suppression with less ...

Paddy-rice leaf area index (LAI) estimation using radar and optical imagery
Rice is one of the most important crops as it is the staple food for more than 3.5 billion people worldwide. As a result, a number of studies have been conducted in order to improve the production and productivity of rice. One of the focus areas of the studies is the estimation of rice variables by making use of satellite images as the variables can be

Estimation of Leaf Area Index: a case study with LAI-2000
The leaf area index (LAI) is the key for modelling and knowledge of water and carbon cycle, therefore needed for the climate change measurement. This study makes a short review of direct and indirect methods with their advantages and their disadvantages; an overview of the discrepancies about the Licor LAI-2000 Plant Canopy Analyser is performed ...

Global vegetation variability and its response to elevated CO2, global warming, and climate variability – a study using the offline SSiB4/TRIFFID model and satellite data [PDF]
. The climate regime shift during the 1980s had a substantial impact on the terrestrial ecosystems and vegetation at different scales. However, the mechanisms driving vegetation changes, before and after the shift, remain unclear.

Growth analysis of forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L) varieties under varying salinity and irrigation frequency. [PDF]
Growth of forage sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] varieties was assessed under saline conditions (EC 0, 5, 10, 15 dS m-1) and irrigated when the leaf water potential reached -1(control),-1.5 and -2 MPa.
