In order to clarify the impact of coupling canopy morphology with other modal information on estimating winter wheat leaf chlorophyll content (LCC), two wheat varieties, Shinong 086 and Hemai 2020 were used as materials. Four nitrogen application levels (0, 120, 240, and 360 kg·hm-2) were set up in fields. This study used a low-altitude unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) remote sensing platform equipped with a multispectral camera to obtain spectral data of winter wheat at key growth stages. The canopy morphology effect was calculated in combination with the digital elevation model (DEM), and Random Forest Regression (RF), Categorical Boosting (Catboost), and eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) were applied to analyze the contribution of spectral information, index information, and canopy morphology information, among other multi-modal data, to the monitoring of LCC in winter wheat. The results showed that compared with spectral and vegetation index features, canopy morphology could improve the monitoring accuracy of LCC (r2=0.66), and the importance of DEM was superior to that of slope. Among the three machine learning algorithms, the LCC model constructed by Catboost could achieve high monitoring accuracy both in the case of single feature and multi-source feature coupling, especially when a single canopy morphology feature was used as the input variable. Multi-source feature coupling does not improve the monitoring accuracy of LCC, but the coupling of other features with canopy morphology features can improve the monitoring accuracy to a certain extent.
