Development of a New BRDF-Resistant Vegetation Index for Improving the Estimation of Leaf Area Index
The leaf area index (LAI) is one of the most important Earth surface parameters used in the modeling of ecosystems and their interaction with climate. Numerous vegetation indices have been developed to estimate the LAI. However, because of the effects of the bi-directional reflectance distribution f...
