Estimation of forest structure metrics relevant to hydrologic modelling using coordinate transformation of airborne laser scanning data
An accurate characterisation of the complex and heterogeneous forest architecture is necessary to parameterise physically-based hydrologic models that simulate precipitation interception, energy fluxes and water dynamics. While hemispherical photography has become a popular method to obtain a number...
