Abstract :
The Fraunhofer Line Discrimination (FLD) principle is established as a good method for remote sensing of solar induced chlorophyll fluorescence. Some improvements to the method are analysed in order to determine and reduce the sources of error in the estimation of the fluorescence emission. A sensitivity analysis has been performed over simulated data generated from real diurnal cycle measurements.
