Light Extinction Coefficient

Light Extinction Coefficient is a dimensionless parameter in radiative transfer theory that quantifies the rate at which incoming solar radiation attenuates per unit leaf area index in a canopy, distinguishing itself from other optical properties by characterizing the combined effects of absorption and scattering as light propagates through vegetative layers.
