Abstract
Presents the experimental setup and the results of truck-mounted radar measurements at a small scale. Two controlled test sites were chosen, an oak stand and a small pine stand. The measurements were conducted in exactly the same experimental conditions during summer and winter in order to observe seasonal effects and quantify leaf contribution for the deciduous trees
