Climate change and human activities are reshaping the structure function of terrestrial ecosystems, particularly in vulnerable regions such as agro-pastoral ecotones. However, extent to which climate impacts vegetation growth these areas remains poorly understood, largely due modifying effects human-induced land cover changes on sensitivity climatic variations. This study utilizes satellite-derived indices, datasets, data investigate influence both ecotone northern China (APENC) from 2001 2022. The results reveal that productivity, indicated by kernel Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (kNDVI), varies depending type APENC. Moreover, ridge regression modeling shows pre-season conditions (i.e., precipitation temperature) have a stronger positive impact growing-season productivity than growing season temperature, while effect vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is negative. Notably, kNDVI exhibits significant (p < 0.05) 34.12% region negative VPD 38.80%. model explained 89.10% total variation (R2 = 0.891). These findings not only emphasize critical role historical contemporary shaping but also provide valuable insights into how adjust agricultural animal husbandry management strategies improve regional adaptation based information previous seasons fragile regions.

Water use efficiency (WUE), as an important metric for ecosystem resilience, has been identified to play a significant role in the coupling of carbon and water cycles. The farming–pastoral ecotone Northern China (FPENC), which is highly susceptible drought due scarcity, long recognized ecologically fragile zone. ecological restoration projects have mitigated land degradation maintain sustainability dryland. However, process greening drylands potential impact availability. A comprehensive analysis WUE FPENC can help understand absorption consumption. Using gross primary production (GPP) evapotranspiration (ET) data from MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), alongside biophysical variables cover information, spatio-temporal variations 2003 2022 were examined. Additionally, its driving force resilience also revealed. Results indicated that annual mean fluctuated between 0.52 2.60 gC kgH2O−1, showing non-significant decreasing trend across FPENC. Notably, averaged underwent decline before 2012 (p < 0.05), then showed slight increased = 0.14) during year afterward (i.e., 2013–2022). In terms climatic controls, temperature (Temp) soil volumetric content (VSWC) dominantly affected 2012; VPD (vapor pressure deficit), VSWC, Temp controls 2013 2022. findings suggest wetter atmosphere moisture contribute WUE. total, 59.2% was shown be non-resilient, grassland occupy majority area, located Mu Us Sandy Horqin Sand Land.
