Four Dimensional Mapping of Vegetation Moisture Content Using Dual-Wavelength Terrestrial Laser Scanning
摘要： Recently, terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) has shown potential in measuring vegetation biochemical traits in three dimensions (3D) by using reflectance derived from backscattered intensity data. The 3D estimates can provide information about the vertical heterogeneity of canopy biochemical traits which affects canopy reflectance but cannot be measured from spaceborne and airborne optical remote sensing data. Leaf equivalent water thickness (EWT), a metric widely used in vegetation health monitoring, has been successfully linked to the normalized difference index (NDI) of near and shortwave infrared wavelengths at the leaf level. However, only two previous studies have linked EWT to NDI at the canopy level in field campaigns. In this study, an NDI consisting of 808 and 1550 nm wavelengths was used to generate 3D EWT estimates at the canopy level in a broadleaf mixed-species tree plot during and after a heatwave. The relative error in EWT estimates was 6% across four different species. Temporal changes in EWT were measured, and the accuracy varied between trees, a factor of the errors in EWT estimates on both dates. Vertical profiles of EWT were generated for six trees and showed vertical heterogeneity and variation between species. The change in EWT vertical profiles during and after the heatwave differed between trees, demonstrating that trees reacted in different ways to the drought condition.

Wavelength selection of the multispectral lidar system for estimating leaf chlorophyll and water contents through the PROSPECT model
摘要： The estimation of leaf biochemical constituents is of high interest for the physiological and ecological applications of remote sensing. The multispectral lidar (MSL) system emerges as a promising active remote sensing technology with the ability to acquire both three-dimensional and spectral characteristics of targets. The detection wavelengths of the MSL system can be geared toward the specific application purposes. Therefore, it’s important to conduct the wavelength selection work to maximize the potential of the MSL system in vegetation monitoring. Traditional strategies of wavelength selection attempt to establish an empirical relationship between large quantities of observed reflectance and foliar biochemical constituents. By contrast, this study proposed to select wavelengths through the radiative transfer model PROSPECT. A five-wavelength combination was established to estimate leaf chlorophyll and water contents: 680, 716, 1104, 1882 and 1920 nm. The consistency of the wavelengths selected were tested by running different versions of PROSPECT model. Model inversion using simulated and experimental datasets showed that the selected wavelengths have the ability to retrieve leaf chlorophyll and water contents accurately. Overall, this study demonstrated the potential of the MSL system in vegetation monitoring and can serve as a guide in the design of new MSL systems for the application community.
