La réflectance des plantes dans cette région du spectre (0.7 - 1.3 mm) est causée spécialement par la structure interne des feuilles. Comme cette structure est très variable entre les espèces, les mesures de réflectance dans cette région du spectre nous permettent souvent de faire une distinction satisfaisante entre les espèces malgré leur ressemblance dans le visible.

OBS

réflectance des plantes : terme uniformisé par le Groupe de travail de la terminologie de RADARSAT-2 (GTTR).
