ACCOUNTING FOR WOOD, FOLIAGE PROPERTIES, AND LASER EFFECTIVE FOOTPRINT IN ESTIMATIONS OF LEAF AREA DENSITY FROM MULTIVIEW-LIDAR DATA

Accounting for Wood, Foliage Properties, and Laser Effective Footprint in Estimations of Leaf Area Density from Multiview-LiDAR Data

The spatial distribution of Leaf Area Density (LAD) in a tree canopy has fundamental functions in ecosystems.It can be measured through a variety of methods, including voxel-based methods applied to LiDAR point clouds.A theoretical study recently compared the numerical errors of these methods and showed that the bias-corrected Maximum Likelihood Es

A Dual-Frequency Faraday Laser

The Faraday laser, with Faraday anomalous dispersion optical filter (FADOF) as frequency-selection element, is a natural narrow-bandwidth light source for laser physic experiments.In this work, a Drawing dual-frequency (DF) Faraday laser is demonstrated for the first time on Cs D2 line at 852 nm.The frequencies of the two modes of DF Faraday laser
