The canopy water content VIs provide a measure of the amount of water contained in the foliage canopy. Water content is an important quantity of vegetation because higher water content indicates healthier vegetation that is likely to grow faster and be more fire-resistant. Canopy water content VIs use reflectance measurements in the near-infrared and shortwave infrared regions to take advantage of known absorption features of water and the penetration depth of light in the near-infrared region to make integrated measurements of total column water content. Canopy water content (CWC, g m−2), defined as the quantity of water per unit area of ground surface [26], is obtained by measuring product of the quantity of water per unit leaf area in g cm−2 and LAI [25], or calculated by the difference of FW and DW
