Abstract
Remotely sensed measurements at optical wavelengths may provide information on crop water status and increase the accuracy of crop production forecasts. Previous research has shown that canopy spectral response to water stress is attributable to change in leaf water content, canopy structure and soil moisture. This experiment was designed to study leaf spectral response resulting from changes in leaf water content and to evaluate the use of a radiative transfer model for predicting the spectral behaviour of the leaf. The difference between measured and modelled reflectance increased as leaf water content decreased and it was hypothesized that this may be due to a change in leaf internal structure that was unaccounted for by the model.
