Influences of Seasonal Soil Moisture and Temperature on Vegetation Phenology in the Qilian Mountains
Vegetation phenology is a commonly used indicator of ecosystem responses to climate change and plays a vital role in ecosystem carbon and hydrological cycles. Previous studies have mostly focused on the response of vegetation phenology to temperature and

A global reanalysis of vegetation phenology [PDF]
[1] Simulations of the global water and carbon cycle are sensitive to the model representation of vegetation phenology. Current phenology models are empirical, and few predict both phenological timing and leaf state. Our previous study demonstrated how satellite data assimilation employing an Ensemble Kalman Filter yields realistic phenological model ...

Climate, vegetation phenology and forest fires in Siberia [PDF]
A time series of 18 years of fAPAR (fraction of photosynthetically active radiation absorbed by the green parts of vegetation) data from the NOAA AVHRR instrument series was analyzed for interannual variations in the start, peak, end and length of the season of vegetation photosynthetic activity in Central and East Siberia.

On the Response of European Vegetation Phenology to Hydroclimatic Anomalies [PDF]
Climate change is expected to alter vegetation and carbon cycle processes, with implications for ecosystems. Notably, understanding the sensitivity of vegetation to the anomalies of precipitation and temperature over different land cover classes and the corresponding temporal response is essential for improved climate prediction.

Coarse-Resolution Satellite Images Overestimate Urbanization Effects on Vegetation Spring Phenology
Numerous investigations of urbanization effects on vegetation spring phenology using satellite images have reached a consensus that vegetation spring phenology in urban areas occurs earlier than in surrounding rural areas.
