Leaf Area Index (LAI)
|
|
|
Leaf area index (LAI) is
ratio of the
|
|
|
total area of all leaves (one-side) on a
|
|
plant to the area of ground covered
|
|
|
by the plant.
|
|
|
It defines the area that
interacts with
|
|
|
solar radiation and that is responsible
|
|
|
for carbon absorption and exchange
|
|
|
with the atmosphere.
