prospect5B: PROSPECT-5B leaf radiative transfer model

In serbinsh/R-PROSPECT: R functions for running PROSPECT family of leaf radiative transfer models

Description

Plant leaf reflectance and transmittance are calculated from 400 nm to 2500 nm (1 nm step) with the following parameters:

Usage

  prospect5B(N, Cab, Car, Cbrown, Cw, Cm)

Arguments

N	leaf structure parameter. Number of elementary layers
Cab	leaf chlorophyll a+b content in ug/cm2
Car	leaf carotenoid content ug/cm2
Cbrown	brown pigments content in arbitrary units
Cw	leaf equivalent water thickness (EWT) in g/cm2 or cm-1
Cm	leaf dry matter content in g/cm2 (alias leaf mass per area [LMA])
