Modelling Canopy Gap Fraction from Lidar Intensity
We reconstruct the vertical pulse power distribution returned from a commercial small footprint discrete pulse airborne laser terrain mapper within a mixed forest landscape. By modifying a Beer-Lambert approach, we relate the ratio of ground return power / total return power to the canopy gap fraction (P) as derived from digital hemispherical photography (DHP). The results are compared to the c...
متن کاملCatalytic conversion of waste low density polyethylene into fuel oil
Waste Low density polyethylenes (LDPE) represent a source of energy and valuablechemicals, were pyrolysed catalytically in a batch reactor under atmospheric pressure. Calciumcarbide was used as a catalyst to explore its effect on pyrolysis product distribution. The effect oftemperature, amount of catalyst and time on the yields of the pyrolysed products wasinvestigated. The effect of catalyst o...
متن کاملEstimating Leaf Bulk Density Distribution in a Tree Canopy Using Terrestrial LiDAR and a Straightforward Calibration Procedure
Leaf biomass distribution is a key factor for modeling energy and carbon fluxes in forest canopies and for assessing fire behavior. We propose a new method to estimate 3D leaf bulk density distribution, based on a calibration of indices derived from T-LiDAR. We applied the method to four contrasted plots in a mature Quercus pubescens forest. Leaf bulk densities were measured inside 0.7 m-diamet...
متن کاملEstimating canopy water content from spectroscopy
Canopy water content is a dynamic quantity that depends on the balance between water losses from transpiration and water uptake from the soil. Absorption of shortwave radiation by water is determined by various frequencies that match overtones of fundamental bending and stretching molecular transitions. Leaf water potential and relative water content are important variables for determining wate...
متن کاملClustering of Point Patterns Derived from Lidar Canopy Height Data
High intensity canopy height LIDAR data affords model-based estimation of tree locations. The analysis of spatial point patterns is a natural extension of this modeling capability. Identification of within-stand clusters (features) of trees deviating significantly in height from those of surrounding trees (clutter) is important for inventory and forest management purposes. We demonstrate a nonp...
