Estimating below‐canopy light regimes using airborne laser scanning: An application to plant community analysis
Abstract Light is a key driver of forest biodiversity and functioning. Light regimes beneath tree canopies are mainly driven by the solar angle, topography, and vegetation structure, whose three‐dimensional complexity creates heterogeneous light conditions that are challenging to quantify, especiall...
