Canopy leaf water content estimated using terrestrial LiDAR

•Full-waveform terrestrial laser scanning data have the potential to estimate leaf water content vertical distribution within canopy.•A modified skewed Gaussian function was proposed to perform a decomposition on the full-waveform data.•The backscatter coefficient is strongly correlated with leaf wa...
