Summary

The Sentinel-2 LAI Green Index (SeLI) is a vegetation spectral index intended for multispectral sensing. It was introduced in 2019; its source is cited as Nieves Pasqualotto, Jesús Delegido, Shari Van Wittenberghe, Michele Rinaldi, & José Moreno (2019). Multi-Crop Green LAI Estimation with a New Simple Sentinel-2 LAI Index (SeLI). Sensors, 19(4). https://doi.org/10.3390/s19040904 .

Based on the latest citation data, this index is in the 32.59th percentile overall, ranking 212 out of 313 indices with citation data. Among the 68 indices published within two years of 2019, it ranks 33 (52.94th percentile). Within the vegetation application domain, it is in the 22.75th percentile and ranks 164 out of 211 indices with citation data. Among the 34 similarly aged vegetation indices, it ranks 16 (55.88th percentile).
