The aridity index governs the variation of vegetation characteristics in alpine grassland, Northern Tibet Plateau [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 The vegetation dynamic (e.g., community productivity) is an important index used to evaluate the ecosystem function of grassland ecosystem. However, the critical factors that affect vegetation biomass are disputed continuously, and most of the debates ...

Effects of Habitat Change on the Wintering Waterbird Community in China’s Largest Freshwater Lake
Remote Sensing, 2023 Poyang Lake wetland in the middle and lower Yangtze River floodplain provides important wintering sites for migratory waterbirds. Extreme climatic events and human activities have resulted in the degradation and redistribution of habitat over the last ...

A R-SHINY BASED PHENOLOGY ANALYSIS SYSTEM AND CASE STUDY USING DIGITAL CAMERA DATASET [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018 Accurate extracting of the vegetation phenology information play an important role in exploring the effects of climate changes on vegetation. Repeated photos from digital camera is a useful and huge data source in phonological analysis.
