Remote Sensing of Pigment Content at a Leaf Scale: Comparison among Some Specular Removal and Specular Resistance Methods

Abstract: Leaf pigment content retrieval is negatively affected by specular reflectance. To alleviate this effect, some specific techniques that take specular reflectance or specular effects into account have been proposed. In this study, continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and specific techniques including some vegetation indices (VIs), radiative transfer (RT), and hybrid models, were examined and compared in the nadir and near the mirror-like direction, with a 30° incident zenith angle. Results show that the RT and hyb… Show more

“…of reflectances at several bands, with at least one band at which the leaf biochemical material strongly absorbs radiation. The mathematical combination could also suppress the sensitivity of other confounding factors, such as the leaf surface reflection [ 52 ]. Therefore, compared to the reflectance at the whole 900–2400 nm spectral region, vegetation indices thus were preferred as the inputs to the ML techniques.…”

“…Wang et al [46] removed the specular reflection by identifying the highlight area, removing the highlight area and complementing it with surrounding information. Some scholars proposed to use wavelet transform to remove specular reflection components in remote sensing images, and it has been proved that wavelet transform is indeed effective for removing specular reflection [47,48]. Although many of the above studies have attempted to directly remove or mitigate the specular interference of leaves, none of them explicitly evaluate the specular interference of leaves and introduce a vegetation index that removes the specular interference of leaves.…”

“…In addition, these studies should also be further examined for applicability under other circumstances. For chlorophylls and carotenoids, many advanced and sophisticated retrieval techniques have been proposed, such as stepwise multiple linear regression [ 18 ], partial least squares regression (PLSR) [ 19 , 20 ], continuous wavelet analysis [ 21 ], artificial neural network (ANN) [ 22 ], and Gaussian process regression (GPR) [ 23 , 24 ]. However, these methods have not been reported to retrieve the leaf anthocyanin content yet.…”
