Directional and temporal variability of the APAR/VI relationships - The case of a sunflower canopyDetailed biomass and structure measurements as well as photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) balance and bidirectional and polarized reflectances in various wavebands from 450 nm to 1750 nm have been conducted over a sunflower canopy in France. Preliminary results show that the vegetation indices (NDVI or TSAVI) computed from the red and near-infrared reflectances exhibit strong directional and temporal (variation with the sun zenith angle) features. The relationship between the vegetation indices and the PAR fraction absorbed or intercepted by the canopy is likely to vary greatly with these factors.
