Comparing Two Novel LiDAR‐Based Indices for Quantifying Forest Structural Complexity
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.This study compares two LiDAR‐derived forest structural complexity indices: the fractal‐based box dimension (Db$$ {D}_b $$) and the entropy‐based canopy entropy (CE$$ CE $$). Analysis of 170 plots revealed a strong linear correlation (r = 0.823) between Db$$ {D}_b $$ and CE$$ CE $$, but computation was much slower.
