Fine-scale Quantification of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation (APAR) in Plantation Forests with 3D Radiative Transfer Modeling and LiDAR Data

In recent years, LiDAR technology has gained widespread attention for its ability to provide precise 3D vertical structural data for various objects, particularly forests. In our dataset, we utilized LiDAR data to reconstruct intricately detailed three-dimensional representations of specific larch forest landscapes. These detailed forest structural models enable us to drive three-dimensional radiative transfer models, analyze the radiation budget of the forest canopy, and gain valuable insights into fine-scale forest management strategies. This is the research work we conducted by combining the aforementioned 3D forest scenes with the 3D RTM LESS. If you use our data, please cite our article.

We welcome researchers interested in a wide range of fields, such as vegetation ecological applications, to communicate with us by combining 3D vegetation modeling.
