Grassland gross primary productivity (GPP) is an important part of global terrestrial carbon flux, and its accurate simulation future prediction play role in understanding the ecosystem cycle. Machine learning has potential large-scale GPP prediction, but application accuracy impact factors still need further research. This paper takes Mongolian Plateau as research area. Six machine methods (multilayer perception, random forest, Adaboost, gradient boosting decision tree, XGBoost, LightGBM) were trained using remote sensing data (MODIS GPP) 14 factor carried out grassland GPP. Then, flux observation (positions stations) non-flux reference data, detailed evaluation comprehensive trade-offs are on results, key affecting performance explored. The results show that: (1) six highly consistent with change tendency demonstrating applicability prediction. (2) LightGBM best overall performance, small absolute error (mean less than 1.3), low degree deviation (root mean square 3.2), strong model reliability (relative percentage difference more 5.9), a high fit (regression determination coefficient 0.97), closest to bias only −0.034). (3) Enhanced vegetation index, normalized precipitation, land use/land cover, maximum air temperature, evapotranspiration, evapotranspiration significantly higher other determining factors, total contribution ratio exceeds 95%.

Climate change is expected to increase the frequency and severity of droughts. These events, which can cause significant perturbations terrestrial ecosystems potentially long-term impacts on ecosystem structure functioning after drought has subsided are often called 'drought legacies'. While immediate effects have been comparatively well characterized, our broader understanding legacies just emerging. Drought relate all aspects functioning, involving changes at species community scale as alterations soil properties. This consequences for responses subsequent drought. Here, we synthesize current knowledge underlying mechanisms. We highlight relevance legacy duration different processes using examples carbon cycling composition. present hypotheses characterizing how intrinsic (i.e. biotic abiotic properties processes) extrinsic timing, severity, frequency) factors could alter resilience trajectories under scenarios recurrent events. propose ways improving their implications needed assess longer-term droughts functioning.

Yellow River Basin (YRB), a climate-sensitive and ecologically compromised area in China, is increasingly affected by extreme climate events (especially droughts) resulting from change frequent human activity. Vegetation responds asymmetrically to drought with cumulative time-lag effects, whereas response across various climatic zones diverse vegetation types the YRB remains unclear. To address this deficiency, we examined spatiotemporal patterns of accumulated lagged effects on dynamics for period 1982 2015. The examination was based long-term Normalized Difference Index (NDVI) multiscale dataset Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration (SPEI). Cumulative (time-lag) were determined via maximum correlation between NDVI one- 12-month timescale SPEI (one-month SPEI), as well corresponding months optimal drought. main findings follows: (1) Accumulated significantly approximately 50% 60% vegetated YRB, respectively, strongest varying types. (2) In general, arid zone tended be more sensitive resistant drought, evidenced occurrence mostly short-term (one–three months) medium-term (six–eight months), respectively. This finding may related vegetation's strategy coping water deficits. (3) biome-level grassland cultivated stronger than those forests, which associated differences functional characteristics root systems. (4) Annual availability responded droughts multiple timescales, coefficients decreasing increasing average annual SPEI. These results indicate that areas low susceptible droughts. (5) Independent or type, cumulatively effects. study improves knowledge climate–vegetation relationships provides theoretical support addressing risk changing climate.

Abstract Intensified droughts have been weakening global vegetation productivity, yet how the sensitivity of productivity to drought changes over time is not well known. Here, using simulated long‐term gross primary production (GPP) with an improved two‐leaf light use efficiency model and Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI), we studied drought, quantified by corresponding scale SPEI strongest impact on GPP, analyzed in two periods (1993–2005 2006–2018). Compared first period, were more widespread severer around world second as evidenced increased range (increased 4.43%) intensity (SPEI03 decreased 103%). Globally, area significant correlation between GPP 25.53%, 14.75%, enhanced 13.76%; changing directions pretty similar across various types, mostly showing increasing trend. Moreover, regions consistently decreasing moisture was affected most strongly experienced greatest change (enhanced 10.99%), indicating that arid semi‐arid ecosystems should be considered a research priority future. Our results reveal strengthened recent decades climate transition regions, which could improve our understanding behavior fate terrestrial climate.

Drought is a slow-onset phenomenon driven by the lack of precipitation, affecting performance plants and functionality terrestrial ecosystems. In addition to length severity drought, period it takes for return normal conditions critical. Remote sensing data with appropriate spatial temporal coverage facilitates monitoring drought its consequences on local global scales. This study investigated influence duration recovery (DRP) different land use cover (LULC) types in Iran. The moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS)-based vegetation health index (VHI) was used monitor 2000–2020. results identified 2000, 2001, 2008 as years. DRP estimated using gross primary productivity (GPP). findings revealed that shrubland cropland experienced more prolonged droughts than forests, which shortest duration. Similarly, shrublands croplands had most recovery, forests time. A direct relationship observed between all LULC types, however correlation time better heterogeneity relationships. provides valuable information resilience achieving management deeper understanding drought.
