Sensitivity of vegetation indices and gross primary production of tallgrass prairie to severe drought
Drought affects vegetation photosynthesis and growth.Many studies have used the normalized difference vegetation
index (NDVI), which is calculated as the normalized ratio between near infrared and red spectral bands ...
Spatial BigData Analytics for intensification of pulses
Supply-demand gap of agricultural commodities continues to rise while total arable land area is not expected to increase significantly. Future increases in agricultural production, particularly pulses, will be contingent ...
Quantification of cropping pattern and productivity of agro-ecosystems in Central Asia
Agricultural production systems in Central Asia have been evolving in response to changes in climate, land use and policies. The cropping pattern and productivities of irrigated and rainfed agro-ecosystems as well as grazing ...
Exacerbated degradation and desertification of grassland in Central Asia
Grassland desertification is a complex process, including both state conversion (e.g., grasslands to deserts) and
gradual within-state change (e.g., greenness dynamics). Existing studies generally did not separate the ...
Quantification of Land Degradation and Productivity of Agro-Ecosystems under Changing Climate and Land Use
Agro-ecosystems in dry areas are sensitive to changes in climate
and land use. The productivities of these agro-ecosystems are
highly variable in both spatial and temporal scales. Accurate and
up-to-date information on ...
Satellite-based modelling and monitoring of grasslands, croplands and land degradation
Satellite-based modelling and monitoring of grasslands, croplands and land degradation
Exacerbated grassland degradation and desertification in Central Asia during 2000–2014
Grassland degradation and desertification is a complex process, including both
state conversion (e.g., grasslands to deserts) and gradual within-state change (e.g., greenness
dynamics). Existing studies hardly separated ...
A 50-m Forest Cover Map in Southeast Asia from ALOS/ PALSAR and Its Application on Forest Fragmentation Assessment
Southeast Asia experienced higher rates of deforestation than other continents in the 1990s and still was a hotspot of forest
change in the 2000s. Biodiversity conservation planning and accurate estimation of forest carbon ...
Spatial big-data analytics for agricultural intensification and crop diversification in rice fallows
Supply-demand gap of agricultural commodities continues to rise while total arable land area is
not expected to increase significantly in India. Future increases in agricultural production will be
contingent upon agricultural ...
Mapping deciduous rubber plantations through integration of PALSAR and multi-temporal Landsat imagery
Due to increasing global demand for natural rubber products, rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) plantation expansion
has occurred in many regions where it was originally considered unsuitable. However, accurate maps
of rubber ...
