Land Surface Phenology

Land Surface Phenology refers to the study of the timing and patterns of natural events on the Earth's surface, such as when plants begin to grow (bud), bloom, or lose leaves. It captures these seasonal changes to understand how ecosystems respond to climate and environmental factors. By monitoring land surface phenology, scientists can track plant health, predict agricultural cycles, and observe climate impacts over time. This information is often gathered using satellite imagery, providing a comprehensive view of how various landscapes change throughout the year.
