IAI-Science-ISP3-077-008:Patterns and controls of primary production in the Patagonian steppe: a remote sensing approach

Entry ID: IAIDIS680

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: "We took advantage of regional gradients to study the spatial
relationships between aboveground net primary production (ANPP) and climate in
the Patagonian steppe of South America. We explored the same relationships
through time, considering the natural variations of ANPP and climate for 11 yr.
Based on NOAA/AVHRR satellite normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI)
data, we evaluated the ...
