Other claims from this paper (6)
- Method / resource Both nested radiosity and the Monte-Carlo pathtracer gave an accurate correlation between measured and simulated light values in the tomato canopy.
- Method / resource Computation time of the nested radiosity (NR) model varied between 6 and 12 hours, compared with 74 minutes for MCPT.
- Method / resource Computation time of the Monte-Carlo pathtracer (MCPT) was 74 minutes, compared with 6 to 12 hours for NR.
- Method / resource The simulated light extinction pattern was the same for both models.
- Method / resource NR gave lower light intensities in the lower canopy than MCPT.
- Method / resource In NR light intensity decreased constantly with canopy depth, whereas in MCPT the lower canopy showed a constant or only slightly decreasing light level.
