A study on the classification of coastal wetland vegetation based on the Suaeda salsa index and its phenological characteristics by Weicheng Huang, Xianyun Fei, Weiwei Yang, Zhen Wang, Yajun Gao, Hong Yan

“…The results showed that: (1) The classification results of the phenological metrics using any of the S. salsa indices were significantly better than those of the NDVI, with RSSI being the best, with the accuracy of S. salsa being improved by 10 % for the producers and 30 % for the users, and the overall accuracy being improved by 13 %, the Kappa coefficient increased by 0.19. (2) The results of RSSI(1) and SSVI were more consistent with each other, with the overall accuracy increased by 10 % and the Kappa coefficient increased by 0.14. (3) When the combination of phenological metrics obtained from four vegetation indices was used for classification, the results were slightly better than those of a single vegetation index, with the overall accuracy increasing by 2 % and the Kappa coefficient increasing by 0.03. …”
