Abstract
AbstractThe present study describes a new dataset that estimates seasonally integrated agricultural gross primary productivity (GPP). Several models are being used to estimate GPP using remote sensing (RS) for regional and global studies. Using biophysical and climatic variables (MODIS, SBSS, ECWMF reanalysis etc.) and validated by crop statistics, the present study provides a new dataset of agricultural GPP for monsoon and winter seasons in India for two decades (2001–2019). This dataset (GPPCY-IN) is based on the light use efficiency (LUE) principle and applied a dynamic LUE for each year and season to capture the seasonal variations more efficiently. An additional dataset (NGPPCY-IN) is also derived from crop production statistics and RS GPP to translate district-level statistics at the pixel level. Along with validation with crop statistics, the derived dataset was also compared with in situ GPP estimations. This dataset will be useful for many applications and has been created for estimating integrated yield loss by taking GPP as a proxy compared to resource and time-consuming field-based methods for crop insurance.

Abstract
Plant phenomics (PP) has been recognized as a bottleneck in studying the interactions of genomics and environment on plants, limiting the progress of smart breeding and precise cultivation. High-throughput plant phenotyping is challenging owing to the spatio-temporal dynamics of traits. Proximal and remote sensing (PRS) techniques are increasingly used for plant phenotyping because of their advantages in multi-dimensional data acquisition and analysis. Substantial progress of PRS applications in PP has been observed over the last two decades and is analyzed here from an interdisciplinary perspective based on 2972 publications. This progress covers most aspects of PRS application in PP, including patterns of global spatial distribution and temporal dynamics, specific PRS technologies, phenotypic research fields, working environments, species, and traits. Subsequently, we demonstrate how to link PRS to multi-omics studies, including how to achieve multi-dimensional PRS data acquisition and processing, how to systematically integrate all kinds of phenotypic information and derive phenotypic knowledge with biological significance, and how to link PP to multi-omics association analysis. Finally, we identify three future perspectives for PRS-based PP: (1) strengthening the spatial and temporal consistency of PRS data, (2) exploring novel phenotypic traits, and (3) facilitating multi-omics communication.

Wang X, Pan S, Pan N, Pan P. Grassland productivity response to droughts in northern China monitored by satellite-based solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 830:154550. [PMID: 35302027 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.154550] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2021] [Revised: 02/26/2022] [Accepted: 03/09/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) has been applied to a wide range of ecological studies, such as monitoring and assessing drought, vegetation productivity, and crop yield. Previous studies have shown that SIF is highly related to gross primary production (GPP), but its correlation with aboveground biomass (AGB) still needs further exploration. In this study, we explored the potential of SIF for monitoring and assessing the effects of climate change and meteorological drought on grassland AGB changes in the northern grassland of China. By examining the relationship between the Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 (OCO-2) SIF and drought indices, we assessed the response of northern grassland productivity to meteorological drought conditions. The results show that SIF is very sensitive to meteorological drought and can capture drought events and the dynamics of grassland growth in different grassland types. The correlation between SIF, drought indices, and AGB varied with grassland type. A gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT) was used to explore the relationships between SIF and the impact variables in the grassland ecosystem. We found that climatic factors (e.g., annual mean growing season precipitation, annual mean growing season temperature, and annual mean vapor pressure deficit) and human activity (e.g., grazing intensity) significantly impacted the interannual variability of grassland productivity. Our results indicate that SIF changes can reflect the seasonal dynamics of vegetation growth in the northern grassland of China. Therefore, SIF can be used as benchmark data for evaluating the performance of terrestrial ecosystem models in simulating ecosystem productivity in this region. The high sensitivity of SIF to drought suggests that it is a useful tool for monitoring and assessing drought events.

Monitoring 2019 Drought and Assessing Its Effects on Vegetation Using Solar-Induced Chlorophyll Fluorescence and Vegetation Indexes in the Middle and Lower Reaches of Yangtze River, China.

Abstract
Monitoring drought precisely and evaluating drought effects quantitatively can establish a scientific foundation for understanding drought. Although solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) can detect the drought stress in advance, the performance of SIF in monitoring drought and assessing drought-induced gross primary productivity (GPP) losses from lush to senescence remains to be further studied. Taking the 2019 drought in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River (MLRYR) as an example, this study aims to monitor and assess this drought by employing a new global, OCO-2-based SIF (GOSIF) and vegetation indexes (VIs). Results showed that the GPP, GOSIF, and VIs all exhibited significant increasing trends during 2000–2020. GOSIF was most consistent with GPP in spatial distribution and was most correlated with GPP in both annual (linear correlation, R2 = 0.87) and monthly (polynomial correlation, R2 = 0.976) time scales by comparing with VIs. During July–December 2019, the precipitation (PPT), soil moisture, and standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) were generally below the averages during 2011–2020 and reached their lowest point in November, while those of air temperature (Tem), land surface temperature (LST), and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) were the contrary. For drought monitoring, the spatial distributions of standardized anomalies of GOSIF and VIs were consistent during August–October 2019. In November and December, however, considering vegetation has entered the senescence stage, SIF had an obvious early response in vegetation physiological state monitoring compared with VIs, while VIs can better indicate meteorological drought conditions than SIF. For drought assessment, the spatial distribution characteristics of GOSIF and its standardized anomaly were both most consistent with that of GPP, especially the standardized anomaly in November and December. All the above phenomena verified the good spatial consistency between SIF and GPP and the superior ability of SIF in capturing and quantifying drought-induced GPP losses. Results of this study will improve the understanding of the prevention and reduction in agrometeorological disasters and can provide an accurate and timely method for drought monitoring.

Assessing the Impact of Extreme Droughts on Dryland Vegetation by Multi-Satellite Solar-Induced Chlorophyll Fluorescence. REMOTE SENSING 2022.

Abstract
Satellite-estimated solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) is proven to be an effective indicator for dynamic drought monitoring, while the capability of SIF to assess the variability of dryland vegetation under water and heat stress remains challenging. This study presents an analysis of the responses of dryland vegetation to the worst extreme drought over the past two decades in Australia, using multi-source spaceborne SIF derived from the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment-2 (GOME-2) and TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI). Vegetation functioning was substantially constrained by this extreme event, especially in the interior of Australia, in which there was hardly seasonal growth detected by neither satellite-based observations nor tower-based flux measurements. At a 16-day interval, both SIF and enhanced vegetation index (EVI) can timely capture the reduction at the onset of drought over dryland ecosystems. The results demonstrate that satellite-observed SIF has the potential for characterizing and monitoring the spatiotemporal dynamics of drought over water-limited ecosystems, despite coarse spatial resolution coupled with high-retrieval noise as compared with EVI. Furthermore, our study highlights that SIF retrieved from TROPOMI featuring substantially enhanced spatiotemporal resolution has the promising capability for accurately tracking the drought-induced variation of heterogeneous dryland vegetation.

Vegetation Productivity Losses Linked to Mediterranean Hot and Dry Events. REMOTE SENSING 2021. [DOI: 10.3390/rs13194010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
Persistent hot and dry conditions play an important role in vegetation dynamics, being generally associated with reduced activity. In the Mediterranean region, ecosystems are adapted to such conditions. However, prolonged and intense heat and drought or the occurrence of compound hot and dry events may still have a negative impact on vegetation activity. This work aims to study how the productivity of Mediterranean vegetation is affected by hot and dry events, examining a set of severe episodes that occurred in three different regions (Iberian Peninsula, Eastern Mediterranean and Western Europe) between 2001 and 2019. The analysis relies on remote sensing products, namely Gross Primary Production from MODIS to detect and monitor vegetative stress and LST from MODIS and SM from ESA CCI to evaluate the influence of temperature and soil water availability on stressed vegetation. Of all events, the 2005 episode in the Iberian Peninsula was the most significant, affecting large sectors of low tree cover areas and crops and leading to reductions of annual plant productivity in affected vegetation of ~47 TgC/year. The obtained results highlight the influence of land-atmosphere coupling on vegetation productivity and clarified the role of warm springs on vegetation activity and soil moisture that may amplify summer temperatures. The functional recovery of affected vegetation productivity after these episodes varied across events, ranging from months to years. This work highlights the influence of hot and dry events on vegetation productivity in the Mediterranean basin and the usefulness of remote-sensing products to assess the response of different land covers to such episodes.

Evaluation of the FluorWPS Model and Study of the Parameter Sensitivity for Simulating Solar-Induced Chlorophyll Fluorescence. REMOTE SENSING 2021.

Abstract
Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) has been used as an indicator for the photosynthetic activity of vegetation at regional and global scales. Canopy structure affects the radiative transfer process of SIF within canopy and causes the angular-dependencies of SIF. A common solution for interpreting these effects is the use of physically-based radiative transfer models. As a first step, a comprehensive evaluation of the three-dimensional (3D) radiative transfers is needed using ground truth biological and hyperspectral remote sensing measurements. Due to the complexity of forest modeling, few studies have systematically investigated the effect of canopy structural factors and sun-target-viewing geometry on SIF. In this study, we evaluated the capability of the Fluorescence model with the Weighted Photon Spread method (FluorWPS) to simulate at-sensor radiance and SIF at the top of canopy, and identified the influence of the canopy structural factors and sun-target-viewing geometry on the magnitude and directional response of SIF in deciduous forests. To evaluate the model, a 3D forest scene was first constructed from Goddard’s LiDAR Hyperspectral and Thermal (G-LiHT) LiDAR data. The reliability of the reconstructed scene was confirmed by comparing the calculated leaf area index with the measured ones from the scene, which resulted in a relative error of 3.5%. Then, the performance of FluorWPS was evaluated by comparing the simulated at-sensor radiance spectra with the spectra measured from the DUAL and FLUO spectrometer of HyPlant. The radiance spectra simulated by FluorWPS agreed well with the measured spectra by the two high-performance imaging spectrometers, with a coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.998 and 0.926, respectively. SIF simulated by the FluorWPS model agreed well with the values of the DART model. Furthermore, a sensitivity analysis was conducted to assess the effect of the canopy structural parameters and sun-target-viewing geometry on SIF. The maximum difference of the total SIF can be as large as 45% and 47% at the wavelengths of 685 nm and 740 nm for different foliage area volume densities (FAVDs), and 48% and 46% for fractional vegetation covers (FVCs), respectively. Leaf angle distribution has a markedly influence on the magnitude of SIF, with a ratio of emission part to SIF range from 0.48 to 0.72. SIF from the grass layer under the tree contributed 10%+ more to the top of canopy SIF even for a dense forest canopy (FAVD = 3.5 m−1, FVC = 76%). The red SIF at the wavelength of 685 nm had a similar shape to the far-red SIF at a wavelength of 740 nm but with higher variability in varying illumination conditions. The integration of the FluorWPS model and LiDAR modeling can greatly improve the interpretation of SIF at different scales and angular configurations.

Abstract
As a newly emerging satellite form of data, solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) provides a direct measurement of photosynthetic activity. The potential of SIF for drought assessment in different grassland ecosystems is not yet clear. In this study, the correlations between spaceborne SIF and nine drought indices were evaluated. Standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) at a 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 month scale, Palmer drought severity index (PDSI), soil moisture, temperature condition index (TCI), and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) were evaluated. The relationships between different grassland types and different seasons were compared, and the driving forces affecting the sensitivity of SIF to drought were explored. We found that the correlations between SIF and drought indices were different for temperate grasslands and alpine grasslands. The correlation coefficients between SIF and soil moisture were the highest (the mean value was 0.72 for temperate grasslands and 0.69 for alpine grasslands), followed by SPEI and PDSI at a three month scale, and the correlation coefficient between SIF and TCI was the lowest (the mean value was 0.38 for both temperate and alpine grasslands). Spaceborne SIF is more effective for drought monitoring during the peak period of the growing season (July and August). Temperature and radiation are important factors affecting the sensitivity of SIF to drought. The results from this study demonstrated the importance of SIF in drought monitoring especially for temperate grasslands in the peak growing season.

Assessing the Temporal Response of Tropical Dry Forests to Meteorological Drought. REMOTE SENSING 2020. [DOI: 10.3390/rs12142341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Due to excessive human disturbances, as well as predicted changes in precipitation regimes, tropical dry forests (TDFs) are susceptible to meteorological droughts. Here, we explored the response of TDFs to meteorological drought by conducting temporal correlations between the MODIS-derived normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and land surface temperature (LST) to a standardized precipitation index (SPI) between March 2000 and March 2017 at the Santa Rosa National Park Environmental Monitoring Super Site (SRNP-EMSS), Guanacaste, Costa Rica. We conducted this study using monthly and seasonal scales. Our results indicate that the NDVI and LST are largely influenced by seasonality, as well as the magnitude, duration, and timing of precipitation. We find that greenness and evapotranspiration are highly sensitive to precipitation when TDFs suffer from long-term water deficiency, and they tend to be slightly resistant to meteorological drought in the wet season. Greenness is more resistant to short-term rainfall deficiency than evapotranspiration, but greenness is more sensitive to precipitation after a period of rainfall deficiency. Precipitation can still strongly influence evapotranspiration on the canopy surface, but greenness is not controlled by the rainfall, but rather phenological characteristics when leaves begin to senesce.

Widespread Decline in Vegetation Photosynthesis in Southeast Asia Due to the Prolonged Drought During the 2015/2016 El Niño. REMOTE SENSING 2019.

Abstract
El Niño events are known to be associated with climate extremes and have substantial impacts on the global carbon cycle. The drought induced by strong El Niño event occurred in the tropics during 2015 and 2016. However, it is still unclear to what extent the drought could affect photosynthetic activities of crop and forest in Southeast Asia. Here, we used the satellite solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF), which is a proxy of actual photosynthesis, along with traditional vegetation indices (Enhanced Vegetation Index, EVI) and total water storage to investigate the impacts of El Niño–induced droughts on vegetation productivity of the forest and crop in the Southeast Asia. We found that SIF was more sensitive to the water stress than traditional vegetation indices (EVI) to monitor drought for both evergreen broadleaf forest and croplands in Southeast Asia. The higher solar radiation partly offset the negative effects of droughts on the vegetation productivity, leading to a larger decrease of SIF yield (SIFyield) than SIF. Therefore, SIFyield had a larger reduction and was more sensitive to precipitation deficit than SIF during the drought. The comparisons of retrieved column-average dry-air mole fraction of atmospheric carbon dioxide with SIF demonstrated the reduction of CO2 uptake by vegetation in Southeast Asia during the drought. This study highlights that SIF is more beneficial than EVI to be an indicator to characterize and monitor the dynamics of drought in tropical vegetated regions.
