Preliminary Application of Ground-Penetrating Radar for Reconstruction of Root System Architecture in Moso Bamboo

Remote Sensing, 2021
Root system architecture (RSA) refers to the geometric features and topology of the root system. Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a possible method of RSA reconstruction. However, because the topology of the root system is not directly accessible by GPR,
