Vegetation phenology is considered an important biological indicator in understanding the
behaviour of ecosystems and how it responds to environmental cues. Changes in vegetation …

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 …

In the context of global warming, the advancement of spring phenology in northern and
temperate regions due to increased temperatures has been widely reported. Early and …

The ongoing changes in vegetation spring phenology in temperate/cold regions are widely
attributed to temperature. However, in arid/semiarid ecosystems, the correlation between …

Two models were evaluated for their ability to estimate land surface evaporation at 16-day
intervals using MODIS remote sensing data and surface meteorology as inputs. The first was …

Spatial variations in phenological responses to temperature have not been reported for
grasslands of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. Using satellite-derived normalized difference …

Agriculture is expanding and intensifying in many areas of the world, but abandoned
agriculture is also becoming more widespread. Unfortunately, data and methods to monitor …

Photosynthetic phenology has large effects on the land–atmosphere carbon exchange. Due
to limited experimental assessments, a comprehensive understanding of the variations of …

In the last two decades the availability of global remote sensing data sets has provided a
new means of studying global patterns and dynamics in vegetation. The vast majority of …

Urbanization as a global phenomenon is a multifaceted process. Here we do the first global
attempt to characterize the complexity of urbanization from 1975 to 2015 in terms of …
