e0“For each pseudo-species, canopy ρ at a leaf area index of 10 was obtained using the PROSAIL model, but the simulated canopy ρ did not match R∞.”

Other claims from this paper (5)
- Method / resource Euclidean distances between canopy and infinite-leaf reflectance were large, particularly under the Stokes equation.
- Method / resource SCM, SAM, SID, and SID × sin(SAM) found Stokes-equation R∞ most similar to canopy reflectance.
- Method / resource The combined SID × sin(SAM) metric had greatest similarity between infinite-leaf and canopy reflectance.
- Method / resource Infinite-leaf reflectance was judged a poor substitute for canopy reflectance.
- Method / resource Infinite-leaf reflectance may help assess species differences in leaf chemical composition.
