Vegetation Phenological Changes in Multiple Landforms and Responses to Climate Change

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
Vegetation phenology is highly sensitive to climate change, and the phenological responses of vegetation to climate factors vary over time and space. Research on the vegetation phenology in different climatic regimes will help clarify the key factors ...

Identifying environmental controls on vegetation greenness phenology through model–data integration [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2014
Existing dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) have a limited ability in reproducing phenology and decadal dynamics of vegetation greenness as observed by satellites.

Spatiotemporal dynamics and driving factors of drought in the Yellow River Basin (Henan section): insights from TVDI analysis

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
IntroductionLocated in central China, the Yellow River Basin (Henan section) is a vital grain-producing region with extensive farmland. Its strategic central location also means its economic development is crucial for the stable growth of both Henan ...

Land surface phenology and its response to climate change in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area during 2001–2020

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Land surface phenology (LSP), an important branch of vegetation phenology, which is sensitive to climate change and play important role in ecosystem. As a typical subtropical area, in spite of its complex vegetation structure, the Guangdong-Hong Kong ...

What is driving the phenology across the Amazon? A benchmark for land-surface models [PDF]

, 2010
We present a study which has used a Fourier-based time-series analysis method applied to 8 years of EO-derived observations of phenology (vegetation indices) and their potential drivers (downward shortwave radiation and precipitation).

Quantifying the impacts of diverse vegetation-covered patterns on hillslope soil erosion: a case experiment of alfalfa-covered hillslopes

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionThe discrepancies in near-soil-surface hydrologic processes triggered by herbage spatial distribution pattern greatly influence the variation in hillslope erosion process. However, knowledge about the influence of herbage spatial distribution

Snow and vegetation seasonality influence seasonal trends of leaf nitrogen and biomass in Arctic tundra

Ecosphere, 2023
Climate change, including both increasing temperatures and changing snow regimes, is progressing rapidly in the Arctic, leading to changes in plant phenology and in the seasonal patterns of plant properties, such as tissue nitrogen (N) content and ...

Spatiotemporal Variation Characteristics of Extreme Precipitation in Henan Province Based on RClimDex Model

Atmosphere
Global warming has led to an increasing frequency and intensity of extreme precipitation events worldwide. The extreme precipitation of Henan Province in central China usually occurs in summer, with the climate transition from the northern subtropical to
