I want to learn more about using digital images and 3D modelling in assessing plant morphometrics and dynamics specifically measuring leaf areas of terrestrial plants and seagrasses. Thank you for your answers!
See the papers by Barillot et al. 2013-2014 in AoB plants open access
Hello Joshua! Here you can find a lot of information (software, tuturials, papers, etc) about the use of morphometry technics for give an answer to biological questions: http://life.bio.sunysb.edu/morph/
Enjoy your research,

Check out this review to get some general ideas:

This is a pretty cool paper on 3D geometric morphometrics of angiosperm flower shape. Not quite what you are looking at, but I believe the techniques would translate over quite nicely for you. You could also get area measurements from said GM analyses, but a quick and dirty use of NIHs open source ImageJ may work just fine providing you could get the proper images.
