Detecting and predicting spatial and interannual patterns of temperate forest springtime phenology in the eastern U.S. [PDF]
, 2002 We performed a diagnostic analysis of AVHRR-NDVI and gridded, temperature data for the deciduous forests of the eastern U.S., calibrating temperature accumulation model with satellite data for 1982–1993.

War, Drought, and Phenology: Changes in the Land Surface Phenology of Afghanistan Since 1982 [PDF]
2006 IEEE International Symposium on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2006 War and resulting institutional changes can be important drivers of land use and land cover change. We explore how war, its consequences, and drought have affected the land surface phenology (LSP) of Afghanistan. Afghanistan offers a unique case of a semi-arid country with multiple institutional changes during the past two decades.

Improving vegetation phenological parameterization of a land surface model [PDF]
, 2016 Abstract. The growing degree day (GDD) model and the growing season index (GSI) model are two common approaches used in various land surface models (LSMs) for simulating phenophases. The capacity of these two models for simulating phenolphases was evaluated by coupling them to a LSM (DLM: Dynamic Land Model) and validated by observation data from the ...

Near-surface remote sensing of spatial and temporal variation in canopy phenology [PDF]
, 2009 There is a need to document how plant phenology is responding to global change factors, particularly warming trends. “Near-surface” remote sensing, using radiometric instruments or imaging sensors, has great potential to improve phenological monitoring ...

Land surface phenology as an indicator of biodiversity patterns [PDF]
Ecological Indicators, 2016 Abstract With the rapid decline in biodiversity worldwide it is imperative to develop procedures for assessing changes in biodiversity across space. The synoptic view provided by imaging remote sensors constitutes a suitable approach for analyzing biodiversity from local to regional scales.
