The FREEDLES project develops a method to quantify the clumping of foliage in forest canopies, which affects light absorption and scattering. By linking clumping to photon transport models, it aims to improve the accuracy of forest biophysical variable retrieval from satellite data.
Accounting for vegetation structure – clumping of foliage into shoots or crowns – is the largest remaining challenge in modelling scattered and absorbed radiation in complex vegetation canopies such as forests.
Clumping controls the radiation regime of forest canopies, yet it is poorly quantified.
Currently, the communities working with vegetation structure and optical measurements do not have a common understanding of the concept.
The FREEDLES project sets out to develop a universal method for…
