The paper analyzes global tree crown architecture to identify factors driving diversity in height, crown size, and shape across species.

The paper tests the WBE model of metabolic scaling in trees using laser-scanned data, finding support for [3/4] scaling across tree crowns and intraspecific variation.

This study uses terrestrial laser scanning to measure tree surface areas, finding discrepancies between direct measurements and theoretical predictions, suggesting the need to revise allometric models.

The paper introduces a portable hyperspectral imaging system to capture spectrally and spatially resolved light environments in woodland areas, demonstrating its application in Wytham Woods.
