Remote sensing techniques can provide quantitative information on vegetation conditions such as Leaf Area Index and Nitrogen concentration. In this work we evaluate the potentiality of radiometric measurements for the prediction of rice Plant Nitrogen Concentration (PNC): we tested all possible wavelength combinations to derive a Normalized Difference Index (NDI) correlated to PNC. The NDI (»1=503 nm, »2=483 nm) was compared to traditional indices and found to better perform and to be least affected by structural parameters (LAI and biomass). An empirical NDI-PNC model was calibrated and validated with independent data (R2=0.53).

Abstract
Remote sensing techniques can provide quantitative information on vegetation conditions such as Leaf Area Index and Nitrogen concentration. In this work we evaluate the potentiality of radiometric measurements for the prediction of rice Plant Nitrogen Concentration (PNC): we tested all possible wavelength combinations to derive a Normalized Difference Index (NDI) correlated to PNC. The NDI (»1=503 nm, »2=483 nm) was compared to traditional indices and found to better perform and to be least affected by structural parameters (LAI and biomass). An empirical NDI-PNC model was calibrated and validated with independent data (R2=0.53).File in questo prodotto:
