Elucidating the phenology of the Sundarbans mangrove forest using 18-year time series of MODIS vegetation indices

Abstract: Mangrove forests are the most carbon-rich ecosystems in the world however, baseline information on its phenology is poor. Information on seasonal changes in canopy greenness, which reflects the level of photosynthetic activity, is helpful for understanding seasonal patterns of carbon uptake by mangrove forests. To elucidate the periodicity, timing, and length of the active photosynthetic season, we examined temporal patterns in enhanced vegetation index (EVI) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) d… Show more

“…We used three years of time-series data of Sentinel-2 images (2019-2021) to analyze the mangrove greenness phenology in KNP. The study by Songsom et al [25] and Mandal et al [28] used time-series data of vegetation index from MODIS for 10-18 years to analyze the phenology of mangrove forests. This data may determine the phenology well because of the long time-series data.…”

“…Vegetation greenness phenology depicts the annual timing cycle of vegetation growth, such as leaf emergence, greenness, and senescence, driven by environmental and climate dynamics [25,27]. By knowing the green cycle of mangroves, we can determine when mangroves optimally absorb carbon in the atmosphere because of the impact of canopy capacity on photosynthesis [28,29].…”
