“…Vegetation dynamics and productivity responses to climate trends and annual dynamics is of continuing research interest given productivity's role in carbon dynamics and the implications for society's reliance on these systems for food and fiber (Bradford, Lauenroth, Burke, & Paruelo, 2006;Linderman, Zeng, & Rowhani, 2010;Rowhani, Lobell, Linderman, & Ramankutty, 2011). In order to understand climatic and vegetation dynamics, we used Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite measures of NDVI from eight-day composite MOD43 data for 2000-2011.…”

Demography and ecology have long been intertwined in terms of understanding the relationships between population and the environment. Recent advances in data and technology, coupled with our increased understanding of social and ecological process, have greatly expanded the ability to link populations and ecosystems in order to understand their interrelationships. However, there remains a paucity of understanding of how climatic variability relates to the spatial patterning of people and how they may influence one another. Here we couple MODIS satellite estimates of interannual photosynthetic variability from 2000-2011 with housing density for the year 2000 to provide an estimate of the interaction between productivity dynamics and exurban influence at a 2 km resolution for the conterminous United States. The resultant map shows the convergence of population and climate influences on vegetation responses with broad patterns of interaction across the United States and notable extremes found throughout the Central Plains and localized regions of the Southwest US. These intersections of land use and vegetation dynamics have significant implications for ecological systems and ecosystem responses to climate dynamics.

“…Conversely, coarser resolution data sets such as the MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AHRR) provide nearly daily global coverage of earth surface measurements. The combination of high spatial and temporal resolution data provides enhanced insight into the interactions and potential feedbacks between demographic patterns and ecosystem processes (Brown et al, 2007;Scott et al, 2008;Linderman, Zeng, & Rowhani, 2010). The combination of high spatial and temporal resolution data provides enhanced insight into the interactions and potential feedbacks between demographic patterns and ecosystem processes (Brown et al, 2007;Scott et al, 2008;Linderman, Zeng, & Rowhani, 2010).…”

The International Handbooks of Population offer up-to-date scholarly summaries and sources of information on the major subject areas and issues of demography and population. Each handbook examines its particular subject area in depth, providing timely, accessible coverage of its full scale and scope, discusses substantive contributions for deeper understanding, and provides reliable guidance on the direction of future developments.Volumes will explore topics of vital interest: Population Aging, Poverty, Mortality, Family Demography, Migration, Race and Ethnic Demography and more. Each volume will provide a state-of-the-art treatment of its respective area. The series will quickly prove useful to a broad audience including demographers, practitioners and scholars across a range of disciplines.
