Spatial-Temporal Evolution Characteristics of NDVI in Middle and Lower Reaches of Lancang River Basin by YUAN Zeshen, CHEN Chenchen, LI Bogen, WANG Yuchun

“…Vegetation coverage plays an important role in soil and water conservation,atmosphere regulation,and maintenance of ecosystem stability,which influences regional hydrological and water-sediment processes and has important implications for hydropower development in the basin.This paper analyzes the spatial and temporal evolution mechanisms of the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) in the study area from 1998 to 2018 using the Mann-Kendall model coupled with Sen's slope estimator,with the middle and lower reaches of the Lancang River Basin as the study area.The results reveal that ① the annual average NDVI in the study area from 1998 to 2018 is 0.81,and NDVI increases year by year from north to south on the whole;② NDVI in the study area shows an insignificant increasing trend from 1998 to 2018,with a growth rate of 5.8 × 10^-3/a;③ the sudden spatial changes in NDVI all occur in degraded areas.Against the background of increasing global warming and the frequent occurrence of extreme weather in the past two decades,the results of this study provide a scientific basis for future biodiversity conservation and ecological and environmental protection in the Lancang River Basin.…”

Analysis of Spatiotemporal Dynamic Characteristics on Potential Evapotranspiration and Water Budget in Hebei Province by ZHENG Defeng, ZHAN Shiyao, CAO Yongqiang

“…The spatiotemporal dynamic characteristics of regional potential evapotranspiration can lay a theoretical foundation for regional rational crop planting and scientific agricultural irrigation.In the context of global warming and increasing evapotranspiration rates,the Penman-Monteith equation is used to calculate the potential evapotranspiration (ET₀) and water budget (K) of Hebei Province from1967 to 2019 according to the actual meteorological observation data of twelve weather stations in Hebei Province,and the characteristics of their spatiotemporal dynamic variations are analyzed.On this basis,the analysis method of the Morlet wavelet function is introduced for the cycle analysis of ET₀ and K in 53 years.The results show that ET₀ has obvious zonal characteristics,and it is generally on the rise while K is on the decline during this period.Moreover,the evapotranspiration variations vary with seasons:ET₀ shows an upward trend in spring,autumn,and winter but a downward trend in summer.The cycle of K has the most significant oscillation at 35 a,and the scope of the oscillation is prominent in summer and autumn.Therefore,obvious changes in seasonal characteristics of Hebei Province have a great impact on K.The results can provide a reliable theoretical basis for agricultural water-saving and planting structure adjustment in Hebei Province.…”
