Temporal dynamics in vertical leaf angles can confound vegetation indices widely used in Earth observations

Abstract Earth observation data is key for monitoring vegetation dynamics across temporal and spatial scales. The most widely used method to estimate vegetation properties from Earth observation data is vegetation indices. However, temporal dynamics in vertical leaf angles can strongly alter reflect...
