Tropical forest canopies and their relationships with climate and disturbance: results from a global dataset of consistent field-based measurements

Background Canopy structure, defined by leaf area index (LAI), fractional vegetation cover (FCover) and fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (fAPAR), regulates a wide range of forest functions and ecosystem services. Spatially consistent field-measurements of canopy structure are...
