Satellite view of vegetation dynamics and drivers over southwestern China

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Vegetation is a key component of the terrestrial ecosystems, its dynamics serve as an indicator of vegetation health and ecosystem stability. However, the vegetation dynamics and its responses to climatic change and human activities remain unclear in ...

Empirical evidence for impacts of internal migration on vegetation dynamics in China from 1982 to 2000 [PDF]

, 2008
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 ...

Vegetation Dynamics and Associated Driving Forces in Eastern China during 1999–2008

Remote Sensing, 2015
Vegetation is one of the most important components of the terrestrial ecosystem and, thus, monitoring the spatial and temporal dynamics of vegetation has become the key to exploring the basic process of the terrestrial ecosystem.

Synthesis and Perspectives on Disturbance Interactions, and Forest Fire Risk and Fire Severity in Central Europe

Fire
Wildfire risk increases following non-fire disturbance events, but this relationship is not always linear or cumulative, and previous studies are not consistent in differentiating between disturbance loops versus cascades.

Vegetation Dynamics and Their Influencing Factors in China from 1998 to 2019

Remote Sensing, 2022
Vegetation is a critical component of ecosystems that is influenced by climate change and human activities. It is therefore of great importance to investigate trends in vegetation dynamics and explore how these are influenced by climate and human ...

Interactions between carbon and nitrogen dynamics in estimating net primary productivity for potential vegetation in North America [PDF]

, 1992
We use the terrestrial ecosystem model (TEM), a process-based model, to investigate how interactions between carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) dynamics affect predictions of net primary productivity (NPP) for potential vegetation in North America. Data on pool

Simultaneous monitoring of vegetation dynamics and wildlife activity with camera traps to assess habitat change

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, 2021
Vegetation phenology and productivity drive resource use by wildlife. Vegetation dynamics also reveal patterns of habitat disturbance and recovery. Monitoring these fine‐scale vegetation patterns over large spatiotemporal extents can be difficult, but ...

Analysis of fluctuations in vegetation dynamic over Africa using satellite data of solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence

Ecological Indicators, 2023
In Africa, vegetation is important for the protection of species habitats, maintaining local livelihoods, and the existence of wildlife. A comprehensive evaluation of vegetation dynamics using solar-induced fluorescence (SIF) is needed to acquire ...

Modelling the Evolution of Barrier Islands [PDF]

, 2020
Barrier islands form off the shore of many coastal areas and serve as the first line of defense, protecting littoral communities against storms. To study the effects that climate change has on barrier islands, we use a cellular model of wind erosion ...

Spatio-temporal stochastic resonance induces patterns in wetland vegetation dynamics [PDF]

, 2012
Water availability is a major environmental driver affecting riparian and wetland vegetation. The interaction between water table fluctuations and vegetation in a stochastic environment contributes to the complexity of the dynamics of these ecosystems ...
