Development of a New BRDF-Resistant Vegetation Index for Improving the Estimation of Leaf Area Index

Abstract: Abstract:The leaf area index (LAI) is one of the most important Earth surface parameters used in the modeling of ecosystems and their interaction with climate. Numerous vegetation indices have been developed to estimate the LAI. However, because of the effects of the bi-directional reflectance distribution function (BRDF), most of these vegetation indices are also sensitive to the effect of BRDF. In this study, we aim to present a new BRDF-resistant vegetation index (BRVI), which is sensitive to the LAI but in… Show more
