    Abstract

    This paper presents the interim results of an on-going study into the effects of both soil contamination and nitrogen application on the red edge-chlorophyll concentration relationship. Canopy reflectance data were collected using a field spectrometer in conjunction with substantial ground-based measurements of chlorophyll concentration across a grass al-id wheat study site in the U.K. There was a strong red edge-chlorophyll concentration relationship across both study sites and the correlation between red edge position (REP) and canopy chlorophyll concentration was r = 0.86 and 0.81 for the grassland and winter wheat study sites respectively. The strength of these relationships indicated the potential of the REP as a means oi estimating canopy chlorophyll concentration and thereby both vegetation stress and productivity
