Picea crassifolia is the dominant species in the forest ecosystem of Qi- lian Mountains and is critical to the eco-hydrological processes of the ecosystem. Our objective is to compare methods for determining canopy LAI of this P. crassifolia forest. Methods We investigated canopy LAI with an LAI-2000 canopy ana
