Some of these advancements involve using the fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (fAPAR) by an entire canopy (fAPAR<sub>canopy</sub>) and/or the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) in modeling studies. In spite of these advancements, large uncertainties still remain. Zhang (Remote Sens. Environ., 2005) [1] tried to mitigate some of these uncertainties with the concept of using fAPAR that is restricted to the foliage chlorophyll (fAPAR<sub>chl</sub>) instead of the entire canopy. In this current study, we calculated fAPAR<sub>canopy</sub>, fAPAR<sub>chl</sub>, and foliage non-chlorophyll fAPAR (fAPAR<sub>non-hl</sub>) for the Harvard Forest using a radiative transfer model and multi-temporal Earth Observing One (EO-1) Hyperion satellite images. The canopy-level proportions of foliar chlorophyll and non-chlorophyll absorption were determined at different seasons (spring, summer, autumn) in an effort to demonstrate temporal variations of three plant functional types: deciduous forest, coniferous forest, and grass. Comparisons were made for NDVI versus fAPAR<sub>canopy</sub> and for the Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) versus fAPAR<sub>chl</sub>. In addition, EO-1 Hyperion images were utilized to simulate these new fAPAR<sub>canopy</sub>, fAPAR<sub>chl</sub>, and fAPAR<sub>non-chl</sub> products at 60 m as prototypes for the proposed NASA HyspIRI satellite spectrometer. These products should prove useful for future terrestrial carbon cycle and ecosystem studies.</div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>Keywords</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'>hyperspectral imaging; photosynthesis; radiative transfer; vegetation mapping; EO-1 Hyperion images; Harvard Forest; NASA HyspIRI satellite spectrometer; coniferous forest; deciduous forest; ecosystem; enhanced vegetation index; foliage chlorophyll fAPAR variations; foliage nonchlorophyll fAPAR variations; fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation; grass; multitemporal Earth Observing One Hyperion satellite images; normalized difference vegetation index; radiative transfer model; terrestrial carbon cycle; Atmospheric modeling; Biological system modeling; MODIS; Poles and towers; Spatial resolution; Springs; Vegetation mapping; fAPAR<formula formulatype=$ $_{rm chl}$; fAPAR$_{rm canopy}$; fAPAR$_{rm nonmathchar "702D chl}$ ; terrestrial carbon cycle; vegetation photosynthesis;
