Q2. What are the future works mentioned in the paper "Aberystwyth university radiative transfer modeling of a coniferous canopy characterized by airborne remote sensing" ?
In future work, the authors intend to extend the model to include thermal radiation and use it to investigate the spatial variation of snowmelt beneath forest canopies ( Faria et al. 2000 ; Woo and Giesbrecht 2000 ). The model will be run with a range of real and synthetic stand maps and slopes to investigate how subcanopy radiation statistics scale with canopy characteristics and topography. Further consideration will be given to methods of mapping canopy structure using photography and lidar ; as lidar may underestimate tree heights because of the probability of the laser beam penetrating some distance into the canopy, and the model simulates the probability of radiation penetrating the canopy, it may be possible to use the model to assimilate lidar data.
