Assessing the Impacts of Extreme Precipitation Change on Vegetation Activity

Agriculture, 2021
Extreme climate events frequently have more severe effects on terrestrial vegetation activity than long-term changes in climate averages. However, changes in extreme climate events as well as their potential risk on vegetation activity are still poorly ...
