Including shaded leaves in a sample affects the accuracy of remotely estimating foliar nitrogen

The remote estimation of foliar nitrogen (N) has largely assumed that the spectral reflectance value measured on a remote sensing platform comes from only the sunlit leaves of the canopy. Whilst this could have been valid for leaf-level spectroscopy studies, the landscape level estimation of foliar...
