Virtual Geographic Simulation of Light Distribution within Three-Dimensional Plant Canopy Models

Virtual Geographic Simulation of Light Distribution within Three-Dimensional Plant Canopy Models

Virtual geographic environments (VGEs) have been regarded as an important new means of simulating, analyzing, and understanding complex geological processes. Plants and light are major components of the geographic environment. Light is a critical factor that affects ecological systems. In this study...
