英文摘要 | The spatial distribution of the photosynthetic components of a forest canopy plays a key role in ecological related processes such as gas exchange, photosynthesis, and evapotranspiration through affecting radiation regimes of the forest canopy. However, quantitative evaluation of woody materials' contribution to effective leaf area index (LAIe) using 3-D terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) is a challenging work. In this paper, we first identified the differences between directional gap fraction (DGF) and angular gap fraction (AGF) and then developed a local geometric feature-based approach to automatically classify a TLS forest point cloud data (PCD) into three different classes, including nonphotosynthetic canopy components (i.e., stem and branch points), photosynthetic canopy components (i.e., leaf and grass points), and bare ground. In addition, we proposed a new approach named 'radial hemispherical point cloud slicing' algorithm to investigate the 3-D spatial distribution of foliage elements and retrieve LAIe from a given forest PCD. Our results showed that nonphotosynthetic canopy components contributed from 19% to 54% to LAIe depending on various forest densities. Moreover, TLS-based LAIe estimates can explain 74.27% variations of digital-hemispherical-photography-based LAIe values with a linear regression statistical model. This paper provides a theoretical foundation for LAI estimation based on the PCD generated using the TLS system and facilitates the application of TLS on retrieving 3-D forest canopy structural biophysical parameters. © 1980-2012 IEEE. |
