Response of Vegetation Photosynthetic Phenology to Urbanization in Dongting Lake Basin, China
Urbanization can induce environmental changes such as the urban heat island effect, which in turn influence the terrestrial ecosystem. However, the effect of urbanization on the phenology of subtropical vegetation remains relatively unexplored.

Influences of Shifted Vegetation Phenology on Runoff Across a Hydroclimatic Gradient
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 ...
