Vegetation is an essential component of terrestrial ecosystems, and is important in regulating climate change, the carbon cycle, and energy exchange via biophysical factors such as photosynthesis, evapotranspiration, surface albedo, and roughness Vegetation has obvious interannual and seasonal variations that are recognized as indicators for the detection of climate trends in global change studies Thus, we can better understand and simulate the dynamic characteristics of terrestrial ecosystems and reveal the regulation of global change by monitoring long-term vegetation variations.
