A Holistic Approach to the Evaluation of the Montado Ecosystem Using Proximal Sensors by João Serrano, Shakib Shahidian, José Marques da Silva, Mário de Carvalho

“…This work uses data collected between March and June 2016, at peak of dryland pasture production under typical Mediterranean conditions, in twenty four sampling points, half under tree canopy (UTC) and half outside tree canopy (OTC). Correlations were established between pasture biomass and capacitance measured by a commercial probe and between pasture quality and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) measured by a commercial active optical sensor. …”
