Modeling Solar Radiation in the Forest Using Remote Sensing Data: A Review of Approaches and Opportunities
Solar radiation, the radiant energy from the sun, is a driving variable for numerous ecological, physiological, and other life-sustaining processes in the environment.Traditional methods to quantify solar radiation are done either directly (e.g., quantum sensors), or indirectly (e.g., hemispherical photography).This study, however, evaluates litera
