Estimation of vegetation traits with kernel NDVI
Vegetation indices computed from spectral signatures are vastly used for monitoring the terrestrial biosphere. Indices are convenient proxies for canopy structure, and leaf pigment content, and consequently to estimate the photosynthetic activity of vegetation.

NDVI relationship to monthly evaporation [PDF]
Normalized difference vegetation indices (NDVI), calculated from Landsat‐MSS images, were correlated with monthly total precipitation and estimates of monthly evaporation in a prairie environment. The highest value of the correlation coefficient (r=.80) was obtained between the monthly mean NDVI and estimated evaporation of the preceding month.

The role of land cover change in Arctic-Boreal greening and browning trends [PDF]
Many studies have used time series of satellite-derived vegetation indices to identify so-called greening and browning trends across the northern high-latitudes and to suggest that the productivity of Arctic-Boreal ecosystems is changing in response to ...

Empirical evidence for impacts of internal migration on vegetation dynamics in China from 1982 to 2000 [PDF]
Migration is one of the major socio-economic characteristics of China since the country adopted the policy of economic reform in late 1970s. Many studies have been dedicated to understand why and how people move, and the consequences of their welfare ...

Assessing water availability in Mediterranean regions affected by water conflicts through MODIS data time series analysis [PDF]
Water scarcity is a widespread problem in arid and semi-arid regions such as the western Mediterranean coastal areas. The irregularity of the precipitation generates frequent droughts that exacerbate the conflicts among agriculture, water supply and ...

Analysis of urban growth effects on Land Surface Temperature (LST) increase using GIS: A case study of Chelghoum El Aïd city (1984-2024) [PDF]
The city of Chelghoum El Aïd has experienced rapid urban growth, primarily driven by a major urbanization event. This expansion has prioritized the development of natural and undeveloped spaces, rather than investing in urban infrastructure.
