Comparison of Satellite and Ground-Based Phenology in China’s Temperate Monsoon Area
Figure 7
Comparison of five satellite-derived SOS measures and ground phenophases averaged over 12 sites from 1982 to 2006. Ground phenophases were first averaged to each site and then for all 12 sites across the region (note that the different sites have different sets of species). The missing ground observation data was interpolated by phenological models described by Ge et al. [8]. The error bar represents the uncertainty due to the interpolated data by models. Variances of ground phenophases explained by each SOS result () are shown. , .
