| Abstract | Knowledge of both vegetation distribution pattern and phenology changes is very important. Their complicated relationship with elevation and accessibility were explored through a geographically weighted regression (GWR) framework in Fujian province, China. The 16-day time series of 250 m Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) dataset from 2000 to 2010 was applied. Wavelet transform method was adopted to decompose the original time series and construct the annual maximum EVI and amplitude of the annual phenological cycle (ΔEVI). Candidate explaining factors included topographic conditions, accessibility variables and proportions of primary vegetation types. Results revealed very strong positive influence from parameters of elevation and accessibility to big rivers and negative effect from accessibility to resident on both maximum EVI and phenological magnitude through ordinary linear least square (OLS) regression analysis. GWR analysis revealed that spatially, the parameters of topography and accessibility had a very complex relationship with both maximum EVI and phenology magnitude, as a result of the various combinations of environmental factors, vegetation composition and also intensive anthropogenic impact. Apart from the continuously increasing trend of phenology magnitude with increasing altitude, the influence of topography and accessibility on maximum EVI and phenological magnitude generally decreased, even from strongly positive to negative, with increasing altitude or distance. Specially, the most rapid change of correlation coefficient between them was observed within a low elevation or close distance; less variation was discovered within a certain range of medium altitude or distance and their relationship might change above this range. Non-stationary approaches are needed to better characterize the complex vegetation dynamic pattern in Mountain-hill Region. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
