Improving leaf area index (LAI) estimation by correcting for clumping and woody effects using terrestrial laser scanning
2018
Agricultural and Forest Meteorology
However, in the DHP retrieved LAI, there is always contribution of woody components due to the difficulty in distinguishing woody and foliar materials. ...
Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) provides a 3-dimensional view of the forest canopy, which we used in this study to improve LAI estimation by directly retrieving leaf angle distribution, and subsequently ...
