Light Interception Efficiency

Light Interception Efficiency is a metric that quantifies the proportion of incident photosynthetically active radiation absorbed by a forest canopy relative to the total available radiation, distinguishing it from other productivity metrics by specifically indexing the canopy's effectiveness in capturing light for photosynthesis.
