title: [Effect of rice canopy structural changes on bidirectional reflectance].
abstract: The study of vegetation bidirectional reflectance is useful for remote sensing data interpretation. Vegetation canopies information such as leaf area index, mean leaf inclination, mean plant height, and coverage, can be inverted from vegetation bidirectional reflectance. This paper discussed the dynamics of vegetation canopies reflectance with vegetation canopy structures by measuring rice canopy structure and bidirectional reflectance at 26, 35, 41, 49, 62, 67 and 86 days after transplanting. It is concluded that the sensitivity of vegetation canopies to directional reflectance variations varied with canopy structures, and hence, through bidirectional reflectance, more information about canopy structure can be know.
