  • Phenology: An Integrative Environmental Science

    Edited by Mark D. Schwartz ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Phenology refers to recurring plant and animal life cycle stages, such as leafing and flowering, maturation of agricultural plants, emergence of insects, and migration of birds. It is also the study of these recurring events, especially their timing and relationships with weather and climate. Phenological phenomena all give a ready measure of the environment as viewed by the associated organism ... Read more

  • The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index

    by Nathalie Pettorelli ...
    There has been a recent surge of interest in remote sensing and its use in ecology and conservation but this is the first book to focus explicitly on the NDVI (Normalised Difference Vegetation Index), a simple numerical indicator and powerful tool that can be used to assess spatio-temporal changes in green vegetation. The NDVI opens the possibility of addressing questions on scales inaccessible to ... Read more
