The 2010 spring drought reduced primary productivity in southwestern China [PDF]

, 2012
Many parts of the world experience frequent and severe droughts. Summer drought can significantly reduce primary productivity and carbon sequestration capacity. The impacts of spring droughts, however, have received much less attention.

Winter snow cover influences growing-season vegetation productivity non-uniformly in the Northern Hemisphere

Communications Earth & Environment, 2023
Ongoing changes in snow cover significantly affect vegetation productivity, but the actual effect of snow cover remains unclear due to a poor understanding of its lagged effect.

Water availability dominated vegetation productivity of Inner Mongolia grasslands from 1982 to 2015

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Vegetation productivity is controlled by multiple climatic variables such as temperature, precipitation, and radiation, while the driving mechanism remains unclear in Inner Mongolia grasslands. Since climatic factors change geographically and seasonally,

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 ...

Nearly Half of Global Vegetated Area Experienced Inconsistent Vegetation Growth in Terms of Greenness, Cover, and Productivity

Earth's Future, 2020
The considerable interest in detecting global vegetation changes based on satellite observations is increasing. However, studies rely on single indices to explore the driving mechanisms of the greening trend might exacerbate uncertainties of global ...

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

Mapping the Most Susceptible Regions to Fire in Portugal

Fire, 2023
Mediterranean European countries, including Portugal, are considered fire-prone regions, being affected by fire events every summer. Nonetheless, Portugal has been recording large burned areas over the last 20 years, which are not only strongly ...
