GOFP: A Geometric-Optical Model for Forest Plantations
Abstract
Geometric-optical (GO) model suitable for forest plantation (GOFP) is a GO model for forest plantations at the stand level developed in this study based on a four-scale GO model a Geometric-Optical Model for Sloping Terrains-II (GOST2), which simulates the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) for natural forest canopies. In most previous GO models, tree distributions are often assumed to meet the Poisson or Neyman model in a …
