Estimation of Photosynthesis Traits from Leaf Reflectance Spectra: Correlation to Nitrogen Content as the Dominant Mechanism

Numerous studies have investigated reflectance-based estimations of physico-chemical leaf traits such as the contents of light absorbing pigments, leaf mass per area, or carbon and nitrogen contents. Only few studies, however, attempted to estimate …
