Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: Hyperspectral reflectance data collected diurnally from an instrumented tor re examined in conjunction with the eddy correlation fluxes and meteorological measurements made throughout a growing season at a mature Douglas fir forest in British Columbia, Canada (DF49). Here  present 2006 in situ results relating the Photochemical Reflectance Index (PRI 551 ) to photosynthetic light use efficiency (LUE). Canopy structure information was used to partition the forest canopy into sunlit and shaded fractions. At each observation period, the PRI 551  was examined for the sunlit, shaded, and mixed sunlit/shaded canopy segments as defined by their instantaneous position relative to the solar principal plane (SPP).  show that the PRI 551  clearly captures the differences in leaf groups on sunny days.  also examined PRI 551  from MODIS ocean band imagery acquired over DF49 during a five year period (2001-2006) from both Terra (late morning) and Aqua (early afternoon) platforms. The MODIS observations from Terra and Aqua re acquired in different viewing planes above the landscape over a range of view zenith angles, and sampled the backscatter (sunlit) and forward scatter (shaded) sectors of the forest's bidirectional reflectance distribution function. When tor-based bulk canopy LUE from 2006 was recalculated to estimate foliage-based values for the three foliage groups under their incident light environments, a strong linear relationship with PRI 551  was demonstrated (r 2 ~0.80). A similar relationship beten the MODIS PRI 551  and tor-based bulk LUE was obtained from satellite observations (r 2 ~0.62), but only for the backscatter observations obtained at high light levels (APAR, >1500 mumol m -2  s -1 ). The MODIS observations, while not ideal in terms of spatial resolution (> 1 km 2 ) or optimal viewing configuration, nevertheless provided a means to monitor forest under stress using narrow spectral band indices and off-nadir observations.
