Leaf area index (LAI) is a key variable for the understanding of several eco-physiological processes within a vegetation canopy. The LAI could thus provide vital information for the management of the environment and agricultural practices when estimated continuously over time and space thanks to rem

In this paper, we present a theoretical and modeling framework to estimate the fractions of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) absorbed by vegetation canopy (FAPAR canopy ), leaf (FAPAR leaf ), and chlorophyll (FAPAR chl ), respectively. FAPAR canopy is an important biophysical variable and h

A field experiment was performed with an L-and X-band radiometer operating at 1.4 GHz and 11.4 GHz in a deciduous forest in Jülich (Germany) from September to November 2004. The radiometers were installed on the ground being directed upwards through the canopy. In this position downwelling microwave

We report on an exact vector (polarized) radiative transfer (VRT) model for coupled atmosphere and ocean systems. This VRT model is based on the successive order of scattering (SOS) method, which virtually takes all the multiple scattering processes into account, including atmospheric scattering, oc
