چکیده انگلیسی
Leaf area index (LAI) is one of the key biophysical parameters for understanding land surface photosynthesis, transpiration, and energy balance processes. Estimation of LAI from remote sensing data has been a premier method for a large scale in recent years. Recent studies have revealed that the within-canopy vertical variations in LAI and biochemical properties greatly affect canopy reflectance and significantly complicate the retrieval of LAI inversely from reflectance based vegetation indices, which has yet been explicitly addressed. In this study, we have used both simulated datasets (dataset I with constant vertical profiles of LAI and biochemical properties, dataset II with varied vertical profile of LAI but constant vertical biochemical properties, and dataset III with both varied vertical profiles) generated from the multiple-layer canopy radiative transfer model (MRTM) and a ground-measured dataset to identify robust spectral indices that are insensitive to such within canopy vertical variations for LAI prediction. The results clearly indicated that published indices such as normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) had obvious discrepancies when applied to canopies with different vertical variations, while the new indices identified in this study performed much better. The best index for estimating canopy LAI under various conditions was D(920,1080), with overall RMSEs of 0.62-0.96Â m2/m2 and biases of 0.42-0.55Â m2/m2 for all three simulated datasets and an RMSE of 1.22 m2/m2 with the field-measured dataset, although it was not the most conservative one among all new indices identified. This index responded mostly to the quantity of LAI but was insensitive to within-canopy variations, allowing it to aid the retrieval LAI from remote sensing data without prior information of within-canopy vertical variations of LAI and biochemical properties.
