Close relationship between spectral vegetation indices and Vcmax in deciduous and mixed forests

Seasonal variations of photosynthetic capacity parameters, notably the maximum carboxylation rate, Vcmax, play an important role in accurate estimation of CO2 assimilation in gas-exchange models. Satellite-derived normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI), enhanced vegetation index (EVI) and mod...
