متن کاملCharacterization of Canopy Layering in Forested Ecosystems Using Full Waveform Lidar
Canopy structure, the vertical distribution of canopy material, is an important element of forest ecosystem dynamics and habitat preference. Although vertical stratification, or “canopy layering,” is a basic characterization of canopy structure for research and forest management, it is difficult to quantify at landscape scales. In this paper we describe canopy structure and develop methodologie...

متن کاملTurbulence structure above a vegetation canopy
We compare the turbulence statistics of the canopy/roughness sublayer (RSL) and the inertial sublayer (ISL) above. In the RSL the turbulence is more coherent and more efficient at transporting momentum and scalars and in most ways resembles a turbulent mixing layer rather than a boundary layer. To understand these differences we analyse a large-eddy simulation of the flow above and within a veg...
متن کاملDelineation of Vegetation and Building Polygons from Full- Waveform Airborne Lidar Data Using Opals Software
Full-waveform LiDAR is an active remote sensing technique that provides the scattering properties of the targets i.e. amplitude and echo width (EW) in addition to 3D point clouds. The amplitude provides information on the target's reflectance and the EW is a measure for the range variation of scatterers within the laser footprint contributing to a single echo and is, therefore, an indicator for...
