Regional Leaf Area Index Retrieval Based on Remote Sensing: The Role of Radiative Transfer Model Selection

Physically-based approaches for estimating Leaf Area Index (LAI) using remote sensing data rely on radiative transfer (RT) models. Currently, many RT models are freely available, but determining the appropriate RT model for LAI retrieval is still problematic. This study aims to evaluate the necessit...
