Climatic Controls on Spring Onset of the Tibetan Plateau Grasslands from 1982 to 2008

Climatic Controls on Spring Onset of the Tibetan Plateau Grasslands from 1982 to 2008

Understanding environmental controls on vegetation spring onset (SO) in the Tibetan Plateau (TP) is crucial to diagnosing regional ecosystem responses to climate change. We investigated environmental controls on the SO of the TP grasslands using satellite vegetation index (VI) from the 3rd Global In...
