Abstract: A detailed study of the red edge spectral feature of green vegetation based on laboratory reflectance spectrophotometry is presented. A parameter lambda is defined as the wavelength is defined as the wavelength of maximum slope and found to be dependent on chlorophyll concentration. Species, development stage, leaf layering, and leaf water content of vegetation also influences lambda. The maximum slope parameter is found to be independent of simulated ground area coverage. The results are interpreted in terms of Beer's Law and Kubelka-Munk theory. The chlorophyll concentration dependence of lambda seems to be explained in terms of a pure absorption effect, and it is suggested that the existence of two lambda components arises from leaf scattering properties. The results indicate that red edge measurements will be valuable for assessment of vegetative chlorophyll status and leaf area index independently of ground cover variations, and will be particularly suitable for early stress detection.

Relationships between leaf pigment content and spectral reflectance across a wide range of species, leaf structures and developmental stages
Daniel A. Sims,John A. Gamon +1 more
TL;DR: Developing spectral indices for prediction of leaf pigment content that are relatively insensitive to species and leaf structure variation and thus could be applied in larger scale remote-sensing studies without extensive calibration are developed.

Use of a green channel in remote sensing of global vegetation from EOS- MODIS
TL;DR: In this article, a green vegetation index, tailored on the concept of ARVI (Kaufman and Tanre, 1992), is developed and is expected to be as resistant to atmospheric effects as ARVI but more sensitive to a wide range of Chl-a concentrations.

Estimating Corn Leaf Chlorophyll Concentration from Leaf and Canopy Reflectance
TL;DR: In this paper, a wide range of leaf chlorophyll levels were established in field-grown corn (Zea mays L.) with the application of 8 N levels: 0, 12.5%, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, and 150% of the recommended rate.

Remote sensing of foliar chemistry
TL;DR: In this article, stepwise multiple regression and deconvolution have been used to extract chemical information from foliar spectra, and concludes that both methods are useful, but neither is ideal.

Normalizing the stress-degree-day parameter for environmental variability☆
TL;DR: In this paper, several experiments involving the measurement of foliage-air temperature differentials (TF-TA) and air vapor pressure deficits (VPD) were conducted on squash, alfalfa, and soybean crops at Tempe and Mesa, Arizona; Manhattan, Kansas; Lincoln, Nebraska; St Paul, Minnesota; and Fargo, North Dakota.

A model for microwave emission from vegetation-covered fields
TL;DR: In this article, a radiative transfer model was used to simulate the vegetation as a uniform canopy with a constant temperature, over a moist soil which emits polarized microwave radiation, over fields covered with grass, soybean and corn.
