Spring and Autumn Phenological Variability across Environmental Gradients of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA

Mountainous regions experience complex phenological behavior along climatic, vegetational and topographic gradients. In this paper, we use a MODIS time series of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) to understand the causes of variations in spring and autumn timing from 2000 to 2015, fo...
