Abstract

Polarized data of four primary deciduous tree leaves in northeast of China are collected with a bi-directional reflectance detection instrument in four phenological phases during 2002. It was found that those tree leaves´ polarized reflectance characteristics have direct relation with tree species, leaf property and sensor viewing geometry. This study could provide the theoretical basis for further researches on the remote sensing of polarized light.
