Vegetation dynamics and phenology play an important role in inter-annual vegetation
changes in terrestrial ecosystems and are key indicators of climate-vegetation interactions …

Ecologists require spatially explicit data to relate structure to function. To date, heavy
reliance has been placed on obtaining such data from remote‐sensing instruments mounted …

Vegetation phenology controls the seasonality of many ecosystem processes, as well as
numerous biosphere-atmosphere feedbacks. Phenology is also highly sensitive to climate …

The short revisit times afforded by recently-deployed optical satellite sensors that acquire 3–
30 m resolution imagery provide new opportunities to study seasonal vegetation dynamics …

Remote sensing studies of vegetation phenology increasingly benefit from freely available
satellite imagery acquired with high temporal frequency at fine spatial resolution. Particularly …

Wood is the main terrestrial biotic reservoir for long-term carbon sequestration 1, and its
formation in trees consumes around 15% of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions each …

Digital repeat photography has the potential to become an important long-term data source
for phenological research given its advantages in terms of logistics, continuity, consistency …

Agricultural drainage of organic soils has resulted in vast soil subsidence and contributed to
increased atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations. The Sacramento‐San Joaquin …

Global warming is projected to shift the phenology and increase the productivity of northern
ecosystems,,,,–. Both changes will further feed back to climate through biophysical and …

Identifying the relative importance of climatic and other environmental controls on the
interannual variability and trends in global land surface phenology and greenness is …
