ESSD - Spatiotemporally consistent global dataset of the GIMMS leaf . . . Abstract Leaf area index (LAI) with an explicit biophysical meaning is a critical variable to characterize terrestrial ecosystems Long-term global datasets of LAI have served as fundamental data support for monitoring vegetation dynamics and exploring its interactions with other Earth components
Leaf area index - Wikipedia LAI is a measure for the total area of leaves per unit ground area and directly related to the amount of light that can be intercepted by plants It is an important variable used to predict photosynthetic primary production, evapotranspiration and as a reference tool for crop growth
山地森林叶面积指数(LAI)遥感估算研究进展 叶面积指数LAI(Leaf Area Index)是表征植被几何结构及生长状态的重要生物物理参数,也是陆表过程模型的重要输入参数,如何获取高精度LAI一直备受关注。
