Capturing and quantifying the world in three dimensions (x, y, z) using light detection and
ranging (lidar) technology drives fundamental advances in the Earth and Ecological …

Plant phenomics, the link between plant genomics and environment, recently is explosively
highlighted. As its basis, a large variety of phenotyping approaches have been developed …

There has been a recent surge of interest in remote sensing and its use in ecology and
conservation but this is the first book to focus explicitly on the NDVI (Normalised Difference …

Polarized light is a pervasive influence in our world—and scientists and engineers in a
variety of fields require the tools to understand, measure, and apply it to their advantage …

Imaging polarimetry has emerged over the past three decades as a powerful tool to enhance
the information available in a variety of remote sensing applications. We discuss the …

We present the design of a full waveform hyperspectral light detection and ranging (LiDAR)
and the first demonstrations of its applications in remote sensing. The novel instrument …

The concept for a multi-spectral, full-waveform canopy LiDAR instrument was tested by
simulating return waveforms using a model providing ecological sound tree structure …

A new multi-wavelength canopy LiDAR (MWCL) system intended for the remote sensing of
vegetation reflection was designed and its measurement performance was investigated. The …

Traditional lidar techniques mainly rely on the backscattering/echo light intensity and
spectrum as information sources. In contrast, polarization lidar (P-lidar) expands the …

Precision agriculture has become a global research hotspot in recent years. Thus, a
technique for rapidly monitoring a farmland in a large scale and for accurately monitoring the …
