Distinguishing foliage from branches in the non-destructive measurement of the three-dimensional structure of mountain forest canopies

Abstract: Mountainous forest canopies usually present a slanted, rough and porous surface. To clarify the effect of forest on radiative and convective exchanges, the three-dimensional structure of the canopy should be measured. An earlier study examined the laser plane rangefinding method as a new non-destructive way to measure it. In this study, to distinguish foliage from branches using the results of measurements, detected values of reflection were adjusted to compensate for varying distances from the detector to can… Show more
