Abstract Solar spectral reflectance and transmittance of natural leaves exhibit dramatic similarity. To elucidate the formation mechanism physiological significance, a radiative transfer model was constructed, effects stacked mesophyll cells, chlorophyll content leaf thickness on visible light absorptance were analyzed. Results indicated that scattering caused by cells is responsible for The optical path in increased with process, resulting significantly reduced meanwhile at low level, thus tends to maximum absorption photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) enhanced. Interestingly, as two key functional traits affecting process PAR, certain environment show convergent behavior, high leaves, which demonstrates PAR utilizing strategies leaves. This work provides new perspective revealing evolutionary processes ecological can be adopted guide improvement directions crop photosynthesis.

Whether for identification and characterization of materials or monitoring the environment, space-based hyperspectral instruments are very useful. Hyperspectral measure several dozens up to hundreds spectral bands. These data help reconstruct properties like reflectance emission Earth surface absorption atmosphere, identify constituents on land, water, in atmosphere. There a lot possible applications, from vegetation water quality greenhouse gas monitoring. But actual number missions is limited. This will be changed next years by different missions.

Here, we quantify response >1 million pixels 10 × m across Switzerland terms resistance, recovery, resilience. We used Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) derived from Sentinel-2 satellite data a proxy for canopy water content analyzed its relative change. calculated NDWI change between 2017 pre-drought years (indicating resistance), 2019 post-drought recovery), 2017-2019 resilience). Analyzing this large natural experiment, found that 4.3% Swiss declined 2018, indicating areas with low resistance effects. While roughly 50% area recovered, 2.7% forested continued decline 2019, suggesting prolonged effects or delayed damage. differential responses associated site topographic characteristics stand characteristics, lesser extent climatic conditions interactions these drivers.

Summary Leaf traits are essential for understanding many physiological and ecological processes. Partial least squares regression (PLSR) models with leaf spectroscopy widely applied trait estimation, but their transferability across space, time, plant functional types (PFTs) remains unclear. We compiled a novel dataset of paired spectra, 47 393 records > 700 species eight PFTs at 101 globally distributed locations multiple seasons. Using this dataset, we conducted an unprecedented comprehensive analysis to assess the PLSR in estimating traits. While demonstrate commendable performance predicting chlorophyll content, carotenoid, water, mass per area prediction within training data efficacy diminishes when extrapolating new contexts. Specifically, locations, seasons, beyond leads reduced R 2 (0.12–0.49, 0.15–0.42, 0.25–0.56) increased NRMSE (3.58–18.24%, 6.27–11.55%, 7.0–33.12%) compared nonspatial random cross‐validation. The results underscore importance incorporating greater spectral diversity model boost its transferability. These findings highlight potential errors large spatial domains, diverse PFTs, time due biased validation schemes, provide guidance future field sampling strategies remote sensing applications.

Functional diversity (FD) provides a link between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, summarizing inter- intra-specific variation of functional traits. However, quantifying plant traits FD consistently cost-effectively across large heterogeneous forest areas is challenging with traditional field sampling. Airborne light detection ranging (LiDAR) imaging spectroscopy provide spatially explicit data, which allow mapping selected at different spatial scales. We develop an individual tree-based method to measure from tree neighborhoods whole forests, demonstrate the approach by over one million trees in subtropical China. retrieved canopy morphological (95th quantile height, leaf area index foliage height diversity) physiological (proxies nitrogen, carotenoids specific area) for each crown LiDAR respectively. Based on multivariate trait space spanned six axes filled measured individuals, we mapped as richness, divergence evenness, explored patterns well FD–area FD–tree number relationships. The results show that LiDAR-derived spectral indices are consistent measurements weak correlations other level.

Chlorophyll meters enable efficient and non-destructive estimation of leaf chlorophyll concentration (LCC), but require calibration against destructively-determined values to provide an absolute quantity that is comparable between different studies species. Well-established instruments can accurate LCC estimates, the performance recent low-cost devices less clear. Questions also remain over choice generic or species-specific functions. Additionally, little attention has been paid transmittance spectroscopy, which offers substantially increased spectral sampling, as a potential alternative. We investigated well-established Konica Minolta SPAD-502+ Opti-Sciences CCM-200 atLEAF CHL PLUS PhotosynQ MultispeQ V1.0 for forest LCC. calibrated each meter eight temperate deciduous broadleaf species, characterised relationships instruments. assessed whether spectroscopy could improved accuracy.
