MOESM1 of Estimation of leaf traits from reflectance measurements: comparison between methods based on vegetation indices and several versions of the PROSPECT model

Additional file 1. Contains the experimental dataset used in this study e.g. the measured wheat leaf reflectance over the white background and the corresponding chlorophyll a and b, carotenoid, dry matter and water contents. The EXCEL file includes 4 sheets. The first sheet is the description of the dataset. The sheet ‘reflectance_Chl’ includes the leaf reflectance over the white background measured from 400 mm to 2200 mm for 186 wheat leaves and the corresponding chlorophyll a and b and carotenoid content measured destructively. The sheet ‘reflectance_Cw_Cm’ is the leaf reflectance over the white background measured from 350 mm to 2500 mm for 186 wheat leaves and the corresponding water and dry matter contents from destructive measurements. Sheet ‘reflectance of white background’ describes the reflectance of the white background.
