Leaf chlorophyll content is an important variable for agricultural remote sensing because of its close relationship to leaf nitrogen content. The triangular greenness index (TGI) was developed based on the area of a triangle surrounding the spectral features of chlorophyll with points at (670 nm, R670), (550 nm, R550), and (480 nm, R480), where R is the spectral reflectance at wavelengths of 67...

The anthocyanin and chlorophyll contents in leaves provide valuable information about the physiological status of plants. Thus, there is a need for accurate, efficient, and practical methodologies to estimate these biochemical parameters of vegetation. In this study, we tested the performance and accuracy of several nondestructive, reflectance-based techniques for estimating anthocyanin and chl...

in order to study the effect of foliar zinc spraying on photosynthetic pigments and yield of chickpea under water stress conditions, a factorial experiment carried out based on randomized completely block design (rcbd) with three replications in university of mohaghegh ardabili agricultural research station in 2012. the treatments consisted of three levels of irrigation (irrigated at planting, ...

in this study, the winter cold tolerance of seven strawberry cultivars was evaluated using a rcbd design with a split plot arrangement at bu-ali sina university in 2014. after exposure of plants to low temperatures (+4, -5, -10, -15, -20 and -25oc), the values of electrolyte leakage, index of freeze injury, rwc, total chlorophyll and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters (f0, fm, fv and fv/fm) we...

Massive anthropogenic changes in estuarine salinities, from manipulations of freshwater flows, are again occurring through governmental projects ‘‘correcting’’ past freshwater alterations. The downstream effects of increased freshwater on seagrass meadows, a major fisheries and ecosystem habitat, are not clear. Spectral responses to low salinities were quantitatively delimited for the important...

The MERIS Terrestrial Chlorophyll Index (MTCI), a standard level 2 ESA product, provides information on the chlorophyll content of vegetation (amount of chlorophyll per unit area of ground). This is a combination of information on leaf area index (LAI, area of leaves per unit area of ground) and the chlorophyll concentration of those leaves. The MTCI correlates strongly with chlorophyll content...

Portable, non-destructive chlorophyll meters could be a valuable tool for forest managers and researchers. The ability of such meters to assess both chlorophyll and nitrogen content has been well established for many agricultural species, but not wellstudied for North American forest tree species. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of a portable chlorophyll meter to estimat...

Leaf chlorophyll content provides valuable information about physiological status of plants. Reflectance measurement makes it possible to quickly and non-destructively assess, in situ, the chlorophyll content in leaves. Our objective was to investigate the spectral behavior of the relationship between reflectance and chlorophyll content and to develop a technique for non-destructive chlorophyll...

This work presents the utilization of MODIS data for mapping chlorophyll spatial distribution along east coast of Malaysia. Four algorithms have involved in this study which were Aiken’ algorithm, Clark-3-Bands algorithm, Gordon algorithm and Normalized Difference Chlorophyll Index (NDCI) algorithm. In this study, the maximum amount of chlorophyll concentration value of 0.38 mg m occurred durin...
