Globally, wetland loss and degradation have become serious environmental and ecological issues. Wetland monitoring of Ramsar sites in China is important for developing reasonable strategies to protect wetlands. Satellite image time series may be used for the long-term monitoring of wetland ecosystems. The present study used moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) time series data collected in 2001 and 2013 for 20 Ramsar sites in China and assessed the environmental status of these reserves using landscape metrics. The results showed that specific seasonal wetland classes, such as flooded mud, permanent water and seasonal marshes, can be identified using MODIS time series data with acceptable accuracy. In addition to wetland area, we suggest using other landscape metrics, including landscape integrity and landscape disturbance or degradation indices, to assess wetland environmental quality. The slight wetland loss (0.8%) noted in the 20 reserves evaluated herein could indicate the effectiveness of efforts of the Chinese government and local government agencies to protect Ramsar sites. The existing unfavourable environmental conditions, which were manifested by low landscape integrity and high landscape disturbance or degradation for some reserves, were caused primarily by increasing water requirements outside the reserves and by agricultural development within reserves. Therefore, determining how to balance relationships between economic development and ecological protection of the reserves will be important in the future.

Vegetation index time series data modeling is widely used in many research areas, such as analysis of environmental change, estimation of crop yield, and the precision of the traditional vegetation index time series data fitting model is lower. This paper conducts the modeling with introducing the autoregressive moving average time series model, and using NOAA/AVHRR normalized differential vegetation index time series data, to estimate the errors of original data which are between under the situation that the parameters to be estimated are lesser, and on the basis gives the fitted equation to the six kinds of main land covers’ vegetation index time series data of Northeast China region.

This study presents a new method that mitigates biases between the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) from geostationary (GEO) and low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites for Earth observation. The method geometrically and spectrally transforms GEO NDVI into LEO-compatible GEO NDVI, in which GEO’s off-nadir view is adjusted to a near-nadir view. First, a GEO-to-LEO NDVI transformation equation is derived using a linear mixture model of anisotropic vegetation and nonvegetation endmember spectra. The coefficients of the derived equation are a function of the endmember spectra of two sensors. The resultant equation is used to develop an NDVI transformation method in which endmember spectra are automatically computed from each sensor’s data independently and are combined to compute the coefficients. Importantly, this method does not require regression analysis using two-sensor NDVI data. The method is demonstrated using Himawari 8 Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) data at off-nadir view and Aqua Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data at near-nadir view in middle latitude. The results show that the magnitudes of the averaged NDVI biases between AHI and MODIS for five test sites (0.016–0.026) were reduced after the transformation (<0.01). These findings indicate that the proposed method facilitates the combination of GEO and LEO NDVIs to provide NDVIs with smaller differences, except for cases in which the fraction of vegetation cover (FVC) depends on the view angle. Further investigations should be conducted to reduce the remaining errors in the transformation and to explore the feasibility of using the proposed method to predict near-real-time and near-nadir LEO vegetation index time series using GEO data.

<p>El seguimiento de los ecosistemas con imágenes procedentes del sensor MODIS (<em>Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer</em>, espectroradiómetro de imágenes de resolución media) está actualmente muy extendido tanto en tareas de investigación como de gestión. Los índices de vegetación NDVI (<em>Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, </em>índice de vegetación de la diferencia normalizada) y EVI (<em>Enhanced Vegetation Index, </em>índice de vegetación mejorado) son ampliamente usados para la caracterización del funcionamiento ecosistémico. Ambos índices se emplean como estimadores lineales de la fracción de radiación fotosintéticamente activa interceptada por la vegetación (fAPAR), el principal control de la producción primaria. A pesar de sus ventajas, las imágenes de índices de vegetación no están libres de errores. El producto índices de vegetación MOD13Q1 proporciona una capa QA (<em>Quality assessment</em>,evaluación de la calidad) que informa sobre la calidad asociada a cada píxel. Esta información representa una gran ventaja para el usuario, al permitir filtrar aquellos datos que puedan inducir a errores al verse alterados por la presencia de aerosoles, nubes, nieve o sombras. Sin embargo, la realización de un filtrado homogéneo a lo largo de una gran región puede ocasionar la pérdida sistemática de información en determinadas zonas o épocas del año, introduciendo así un sesgo espacial o en la serie temporal. Esta situación puede ser especialmente crítica en regiones con alta heterogeneidad ambiental, como el Sureste Ibérico. En este trabajo evaluamos el efecto que el filtrado de calidad tiene sobre la información espacial y temporal de la base de datos del EVI en el periodo 2001-2010. Los esultados, expresados en porcentaje de información perdida (filtrada) y como efecto de estas pérdidas sobre los valores del EVI, indican que mientras que las áreas de menor altitud no se ven afectadas por el filtrado, las regiones de alta montaña muestran variaciones significativas en sus valores del EVI cuando son filtrados por aerosoles, sombras o la presencia de hielo o nieve. Esto pone de manifiesto la importancia del establecimiento de un protocolo para el procesamiento de la información que considere las características espaciales y temporales de los datos a filtrar.</p>

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar dados multitemporais, obtidos pelo sensor "moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer" (MODIS), para o estudo da dinâmica espaço-temporal de duas sub-regiões do bioma Pantanal. Foram utilizadas 139 imagens "enhanced vegetation index" (EVI), do produto MOD13 "vegetation index", dados de altimetria oriundos do "shuttle radar topography mission" (SRTM) e dados de precipitação do "tropical rainfall measuring mission" (TRMM). Para a redução da dimensionalidade dos dados, as imagens MODIS-EVI foram amostradas com base nas curvas de nível espaçadas em 10 m. Foram aplicadas as técnicas de análise de autocorrelação e análise de agrupamentos aos dados das amostras, e a análise de componentes principais na área total da imagem. Houve dependência tanto temporal quanto espacial da resposta espectral com a precipitação. A análise de agrupamentos apontou a presença de dois grupos, o que indicou a necessidade da análise completa da área. A análise de componentes principais permitiu diferenciar quatro comportamentos distintos: as áreas permanentemente alagadas; as áreas não inundáveis, compostas por vegetação; as áreas inundáveis com maior resposta de vegetação; e áreas com vegetação ripária.

Dynamics Of Vegetation

The purpose of this study is to analyze the dynamics of EVI (Enhanced Vegetation Index) variability in different time scales of the different biomes in the state of Bahia. Images of the MODIS / Terra (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) sensor with spatial resolution of 1km were used for the period between 2001 and 2015. For that, the methodology of the Wavelet Transformation (WT) was applied in each homogeneous region HR. The WT allows to identify in different scales important oscillations in the signal, through scales of energy and global power. Thus, it can be observed that the phenological pattern of vegetation predominates on an annual scale in almost all regions, except in HR1, HR4 and HR6 where interactions with smaller scales are detected: intrasazonal and seasonal to some years in the studied period. In this context, it was possible to identify that in the years where there were higher rates of EVI, there is an association with higher rainfall indices in different regions. Therefore, it can be said that EVI is also a good indicator of rainfall.
