Influences of Shifted Vegetation Phenology on Runoff Across a Hydroclimatic Gradient [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Climate warming has changed vegetation phenology, and the phenology-associated impacts on terrestrial water fluxes remain largely unquantified. The impacts are linked to plant adjustments and responses to climate change and can be different in different ...

Photoperiod controls vegetation phenology across Africa. [PDF]

open access: yesCommun Biol, 2019
AbstractVegetation phenology is driven by environmental factors such as photoperiod, precipitation, temperature, insolation, and nutrient availability. However, across Africa, there’s ambiguity about these drivers, which can lead to uncertainty in the predictions of global warming impacts on terrestrial ecosystems and their representation in dynamic ...

Observing vegetation phenology through social media. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2018
The widespread use of social media has created a valuable but underused source of data for the environmental sciences. We demonstrate the potential for images posted to the website Twitter to capture variability in vegetation phenology across United States National Parks. We process a subset of images posted to Twitter within eight U.S. National Parks,

A systematic review of vegetation phenology in Africa

open access: yesEcological Informatics, 2016
Abstract The study of vegetation phenology is important because it is a sensitive indicator of climate changes and it regulates carbon, energy and water fluxes between the land and atmosphere. Africa, which has 17% of the global forest cover, contributes significantly to the global carbon budget and has been identified as potentially highly ...

Understanding vegetation phenology responses to easily ignored climate factors in china's mid-high latitudes [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Previous studies have primarily focused on the influence of temperature and precipitation on phenology. It is unclear if the easily ignored climate factors with drivers of vegetation growth can effect on vegetation phenology.

Applicability of Green-Red Vegetation Index for Remote Sensing of Vegetation Phenology [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2010
We evaluated the use of the Green-Red Vegetation Index (GRVI) as a phenological indicator based on multiyear stand-level observations of spectral reflectance and phenology at several representative ecosystems in Japan. The results showed the relationships between GRVI values and the seasonal change of vegetation and ground surface with high temporal ...

Changes in vegetation phenology on the Mongolian Plateau and their climatic determinants. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2017
Climate change affects the timing of phenological events, such as the start, end, and length of the growing season of vegetation. A better understanding of how the phenology responded to climatic determinants is important in order to better anticipate future climate-ecosystem interactions.

Vegetation photosynthetic phenology dataset in northern terrestrial ecosystems

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
Vegetation phenology can profoundly modulate the climate-biosphere interactions and thus plays a crucial role in regulating the terrestrial carbon cycle and the climate.

Estimating Productivity Measures in Guayule Using UAS Imagery and Sentinel-2 Satellite Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Guayule (Parthenium argentatum Gray) is a perennial desert shrub currently under investigation as a viable commercial alternative to the Pará rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis), the traditional source of natural rubber.

Random Forest Classification of Multitemporal Landsat 8 Spectral Data and Phenology Metrics for Land Cover Mapping in the Sonoran and Mojave Deserts

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Geospatial data and tools evolve as new technologies are developed and landscape change occurs over time. As a result, these data may become outdated and inadequate for supporting critical habitat-related work across the international boundary in the ...
