Abstract :
We observed deciduous forest area by airborne MSS (Multi Spectral Scanner) and measured fIPAR (fraction of Intercepted Photosynthetically Active Radiation) there in summer and winter. fIPAR and NDVI calculated from airborne MSS had linear correlation, and fIPAR was estimated in the study area for both seasons
