Canopy probabilistic reconstruction inferred from Monte Carlo point-intercept leaf sampling
The usefulness of a probabilistic technique to describe 3D foliage geometrical traits depends on the possibility of quickly and cheaply collecting a leaf data sample. The present simulation study was designed to provide the statistical information necessary to drive and control a foliage random sampling process on a real tree canopy (considered as a population of leaves) and to evaluate two cor...
متن کاملA coupled 1-D atmosphere and 3-D canopy radiative transfer model for canopy reflectance, light environment, and photosynthesis simulation in a heterogeneous landscape
Detailed knowledge of light interactions between the atmosphere and vegetation, and within vegetation are of particular interest for terrestrial carbon cycle studies and optical remote sensing. This study describes a model for 3-D canopy radiative transfer that is directly coupled with an atmospheric radiative transfer model (Forest Light Environmental Simulator, FLiES). The model was developed...
متن کاملSampling methodology for LAI measurements with LAI-2000 in small forest stands
Leaf Area Index (LAI) plays a prominent role as an indicator of forest ecosystem condition in research on change detection. For this, rapid and reliable estimation of the effective LAI (LAIe) — this is the ratio of the total one-sided area of vegetation elements over the unit ground area) — at various scales is of utmost importance. We used the Licor LAI-2000 Plant Canopy Analyzer (PCA) for the...
متن کاملEfficient Sampling Method for Monte Carlo Tree Search Problem
We consider Monte Carlo tree search problem, a variant of Min-Max tree search problem where the score of each leaf is the expectation of some Bernoulli variables and not explicitly given but can be estimated through (random) playouts. The goal of this problem is, given a game tree and an oracle that returns an outcome of a playout, to find a child node of the root which attains an approximate m...
متن کاملPoint Sampling to Stratify Biomass Variability in Sagebrush Steppe Vegetation
Cover and yield are two of the most commonly monitored plant attributes in rangeland vegetation surveys. These variables are usually highly correlated and many previous authors have suggested point-intercept estimates of plant cover could be used as a surrogate for more expensive and destructive methods of estimating plant biomass. When measurement variables are highly correlated, double sampli...
