Resilience of riparian vegetation productivity to early 21st century drought in northern California, USA by Paul C. Selmants, Caelan R. Conrad, Tamara S. Wilson, Miguel L. Villarreal

“…To investigate the response of riparian vegetation productivity to drought and land use, we developed a 21‐year time series (2000–2020) of growing season vegetation dynamics using near‐infrared reflectance of vegetation (NIRV) derived from satellite data across 30 watershed subbasins that drain into the San Francisco Bay Delta in central California, USA. We observed a strong response of riparian vegetation to drought, but rapid recovery and very few long‐term declines in productivity. …”
