✦ Synopsis

The objective of the paper is to study a physically based average. It is concluded that the retrieval of biophysical parameters from inversion of a BRDF model is promising method of retrieval of leaf area index (LAI) and fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (fAPAR) from the perspective of a quantitative characterization of the terrestrial biosphere from space. ©Elsevier Science parameters from global data sets of new generation wide field of view optical satellite sensors, such as POLDER/ Inc.,
