Crops grow dense canopies that consist of several layers of leaves—the upper layers with younger sun leaves and the lower layers with older shaded leaves that may have difficulty intercepting sunlight ...

They found that sensing depth shifts across growth stages, with middle leaves contributing most to reflectance and near-infrared signals most sensitive to planting density. The team also developed a ...

Forests hide critical ecological information beneath dense canopy layers, where traditional imaging techniques struggle to access. This research introduces a breakthrough approach that enables ...
