This paper reviews current information relating to the dynamics of light in northern and boreal forests and discusses factors affecting overstory light transmission, seasonality of …
Light is a key resource for tree performance and hence, tree species partition spatial and temporal gradients in light availability. Although light distribution drives tree performance …
Forest conservation has become one of the most important environmental issues currently facing humanity, as a result of widespread deforestation and forest degradation. Pressures …
Variation in forest canopy structure influences both understory light availability and its spatial distribution. Because light is a major environmental factor limiting growth and survival of …
Across the complex matrix of microsites that compose tropical forests, light availability varies more dramatically than any other single plant resource. On a sunny day, instantaneous …
Predicting land surface energy budgets requires precise information of land surface emissivity (LSE) and land surface temperature (LST). LST is one of the essential climate …
