Comparing global models of terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP): the importance of water availability

Global Change Biology, 1999
SummaryGiven that neither absolute measures nor direct model validations of global terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP) are feasible, intercomparison of global NPP models provides an effective tool to check model consistency. For this study, we tested the assumption that water availability is the primary limiting factor of NPP in global ...

Comparing global models of terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP): importance of vegetation structure on seasonal NPP estimates

Global Change Biology, 1999
SummaryEstimates of the seasonal absorbed fraction of photosynthetically active radiation (FPAR) and net primary productivity (NPP) are compared among four production efficiency models (PEMs) and seven terrestrial biosphere models simulating canopy development.

Comparing global models of terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP): comparison of NPP to climate and the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI)

Global Change Biology, 1999
SummaryTo analyse the broad‐scale behaviour of 15 global models of the terrestrial biosphere, we evaluated the sensitivity of simulated net primary productivity (NPP) to spatial and seasonal variations in precipitation, temperature and solar radiation, and to the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI).

Comparing global models of terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP): global pattern and differentiation by major biomes

Global Change Biology, 1999
SummaryAnnual and seasonal net primary productivity estimates (NPP) of 15 global models across latitudinal zones and biomes are compared. The models simulated NPP for contemporary climate using common, spatially explicit data sets for climate, soil texture, and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI).

A CLASSIFICATION INDICES-BASED MODEL FOR NET PRIMARY PRODUCTIVITY (NPP) AND POTENTIAL PRODUCTIVITY OF VEGETATION IN CHINA

International Journal of Biomathematics, 2012
Net Primary Productivity (NPP) is an important parameter, which is closely connected with global climate change, the global carbon balance and cycle. The study of climate-vegetation interaction is the basis for research on the responses of terrestrial ecosystem to global change and mainly comprises two important components: climate vegetation ...

Spatial–temporal analysis of net primary production (NPP) and its relationship with climatic factors in Iran

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2020
Fluctuations of the climate variables have increased in the recent years. These fluctuations are different in each climatic region. Net primary production (NPP) indicating the plant growth and carbon stabilization over period of time is influenced by these fluctuations.

Satellite-driven modelling of Net Primary Productivity (NPP): Theoretical analysis

Remote Sensing of Environment, 2009
Ecological models are central to understanding the global hydrological and carbon cycles, and need data from Earth Observation to function effectively at regional to global scales. Here, we develop and apply an end-to-end analysis that relates the requirements of ecological models to the capabilities of satellite-sensors, starting with radiometric ...

The role of climate variability in the inter-annual variation of terrestrial net primary production (NPP)

Science of The Total Environment, 2004
Eleven years data set of global net primary production (NPP) and long-term climatic and land use data were used to explore the patterns of inter-annual variability of terrestrial NPP in relation to potential causal factors. Global anomalies in temperature, precipitation and cloud cover were found to significantly contribute in different ways and ...

Impacts of seasonal climate on net primary productivity (NPP) in Xinjiang, 1981-2000

SPIE Proceedings, 2004
This study presented the temporal and spatial variation patterns of the seasonal NPP, temperature and precipitation. The NPP simulated by using the GLO-PEM. A semi-mechanistic model of plant photosynthesis and respiration driven entirely by the satellite observations was combined with climate data in Xinjiang of China over the past 20 years to study ...
