Abstract

First paper to provide an estimate of vegetation height from a satellite based laser instrument for the entire land surface between 60 S and 60 N. The data can be used in climate models and ecological models to calculate the atmospheric turbulence, biomass and carbon stored in vegetation. The curren...
