pyhelios.LeafOptics.LeafOpticsProperties Class Reference

Data class for PROSPECT leaf optical model parameters. More...

Detailed Description

Data class for PROSPECT leaf optical model parameters.

These parameters define the physical and biochemical properties of a leaf that determine its spectral reflectance and transmittance.

Note

• If protein > 0 OR carbonconstituents > 0, the model uses PROSPECT-PRO mode which ignores drymass and uses protein + carbonconstituents instead.
• Otherwise, the model uses PROSPECT-D mode which uses drymass.
