Abstract
The paper is devoted to the analysis of recent progress, current capabilities and prospects of laser remote sensing (LIDAR technique) for measuring quantitative characteristics of photosynthesis. LIDAR implementation of the pump-and-probe technique for remotely estimating the efficiency of photochemistry in photosystem II (Fm-F/Fm) is described. The results of laboratory experiments on optimization of the laser excitation modes for phytoplankton and terrestrial vegetation are presented. In the case of higher plants, significant changes in the ratio F690/F735 were observed with an increase in the power of both pump and probe pulses. -from Authors
