The importance of measurement errors for deriving accurate reference leaf area index maps for validation Moderate Resolution satellite LAI products
Abstract—The validation of moderate-resolution satellite leaf area index (LAI) products such as those operationally generated from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor data requires reference LAI maps developed from field LAI measurements and fine-resolution satellite dat...
