This article aims at finding efficient hyperspectral indices for the estimation of forest sun leaf chlorophyll content (CHL, µg cmleaf− 2), sun leaf mass per area (LMA, gdry matter mleaf− 2), canopy leaf area index (LAI, m2leaf msoil− 2)... more
Leaf area index (LAI), a dimensionless biophysical variable is considered as one of the most important factors in characterizing canopy structure. It estimates the amount of foliage area per unit of ground area and helps indirectly to... more
Within the frame of a larger project funded by the High Tech Offensive Bayern (HTO) hyperspectral HyMap data have been investigated on their spectral content in order to determine bio-geo-chemo- physical parameters of land cover units in... more
The Leaf Area Index (LAI) and its spatial distribution are key features to describe the forest ecophysiological processes. A stable and reproducible relationship is obtained between the LAI and the standard deviation σNDVI of the... more
Leaf area index (LAI) is a key parameter controlling plant productivity and biogeochemical fluxes between vegetation and the atmosphere. Tropical forests are thought to have comparably high LAIs; however, precise data are scarce and... more
