Canopy Cover Estimation from Landsat Images: Understory Impact onTop-of-canopy Reflectance in a Northern Hardwood Forest
In northern hardwood forests, light availability is considered to be the main factor limiting seedling and sapling growth. However, field measurement of this variable is time-consuming. To address this issue, we developed random forest regression models to estimate canopy cover from a Landsat 8 OLI...
