Li-COR® LAI-2200 Plant Canopy Analyzer<br />

• Very rapid method of <br />

obtaining field LAI. <br />

• Provides only total LAI, and <br />

cannot dis4nguish <br />

components of individual <br />

species nor of woody vs. <br />

foliar frac4on. <br />

• Not useful for very low <br />

growing vegeta4on (moss <br />

and lichen mats) because the <br />

height of the sensor is above <br />

most moss and lichens (about <br />

2.5 cm). <br />
