Constraints and Opportunities for Detecting Land Surface Phenology in Drylands [PDF]
Land surface phenology (LSP) enables global-scale tracking of ecosystem processes, but its utility is limited in drylands due to low vegetation cover and resulting low annual amplitudes of vegetation indices (VIs).

An Empirical Assessment of the MODIS Land Cover Dynamics and TIMESAT Land Surface Phenology Algorithms [PDF]
Observations of vegetation phenology at regional-to-global scales provide important information regarding seasonal variation in the fluxes of energy, carbon, and water between the biosphere and the atmosphere. Numerous algorithms have been developed to estimate phenological transition dates using time series of remotely sensed spectral vegetation ...

Relative Influence of Timing and Accumulation of Snow on Alpine Land Surface Phenology [PDF]
AbstractTiming and accumulation of snow are among the most important phenomena influencing land surface phenology in mountainous ecosystems. However, our knowledge on their influence on alpine land surface phenology is still limited, and much remains unclear as to which snow metrics are most relevant for studying this interaction.

Large scale climate oscillation impacts on temperature, precipitation and land surface phenology in Central Asia [PDF]
Central Asia has been rapidly changing in multiple ways over the past few decades. Increases in temperature and likely decreases in precipitation in Central Asia as the result of global climate change are making one of the most arid regions in the world ...

RECENT trends in the land surface phenology of africa observed at a fine spatial scale [PDF]
This research describes the seasonal phenological pattern of Africa's vegetation and its recent trends using MODIS EVI time-series data with a relatively fine spatial resolution of 500 m and a long temporal range of 15 years (2001–2015). The objectives were to measure the vegetation phenology of the major land cover types and determine the temporal ...
