SSHCZO -- Vegetation -- Leaf Area Index -- Shale Hills -- (2010-2010)

Leaf Area Index (LAI) and Canopy Closure (CC) were measured from April to October of 2010 at up to 70 points in the watershed about every two weeks (twice a month). At each point, LAI and CC were measured in four directions and averaged. Soil moisture was measured at many of the same points on a regular basis. LAI was measured using a LAI-2200 instrument (LI-COR Biosciences). Canopy closure was measured with a spherical densiometer, Model C Forest Densiometers).

2010年4月至10月期间，在流域内约70个测量点，每隔两周（每月两次）对叶面积指数（LAI）和冠层闭合度（CC）进行了测量。在每个测量点，LAI和CC在四个方向上进行测量并取平均值。土壤湿度在许多相同的测量点进行定期测量。叶面积指数采用LAI-2200仪器（LI-COR生物科学公司）进行测量，冠层闭合度则使用球形密度计，型号为C型森林密度计进行测量。
