Rapid, reliable and objective estimations of leaf area index (LAI) are essential for numerous studies of atmosphere-vegetation interaction, as LAI is very often a critical parameter in process-based models ...
Further testing and defining of a standardised field protocol for digital hemispherical photography is however needed to improve this technique to achieve the standards of an ideal device. ...
For broad-leaved trees with flat leaves, this definition is applicable because both sides of a leaf have the same surface area. ...
