Chinese croplands have changed considerably over the past decades, but their impacts on the environment remain underexplored. Meanwhile, understanding the contributions of human activities to vegetation greenness has been attracting more attention but still needs to be improved. To address both issues, this study explored vegetation greening and its relationships with Chinese cropland changes and climate. Greenness trends were first identified from the normalized difference vegetation index and leaf area index from 1982–2015 using three trend detection algorithms. Boosted regression trees were then performed to explore underlying relationships between vegetation greening and cropland and climate predictors. The results showed the widespread greening in Chinese croplands but large discrepancies in greenness trends characterized by different metrics. Annual greenness trends in most Chinese croplands were more likely nonlinearly associated with climate compared with cropland changes, while cropland percentage only predominantly contributed to vegetation greening in the Sichuan Basin and its surrounding regions with leaf area index data and, in the Northeast China Plain, with vegetation index data. Results highlight both the differences in vegetation greenness using different indicators and further impacts on the nonlinear relationships with cropland and climate, which have been largely ignored in previous studies.

Accurate estimation of the leaf area index (LAI) is essential for crop growth simulations and agricultural management. This study conducted a field experiment with rice and measured the LAI in different rice growth periods. The multispectral bands (B) including red edge (RE, 730 nm ± 16 nm), near-infrared (NIR, 840 nm ± 26 nm), green (560 nm ± 16 nm), red (650 nm ± 16 nm), blue (450 nm ± 16 nm), and visible light (RGB) were also obtained by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with multispectral sensors (DJI-P4M, SZ DJI Technology Co., Ltd.). Based on the bands, five vegetation indexes (VI) including Green Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (GNDVI), Leaf Chlorophyll Index (LCI), Normalized Difference Red Edge Index (NDRE), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and Optimization Soil-Adjusted Vegetation Index (OSAVI) were calculated. The semi-empirical model (SEM), the random forest model (RF), and the Extreme Gradient Boosting model (XGBoost) were used to estimate rice LAI based on multispectral bands, VIs, and their combinations, respectively. The results indicated that the GNDVI had the highest accuracy in the SEM (R2 = 0.78, RMSE = 0.77). For the single band, NIR had the highest accuracy in both RF (R2 = 0.73, RMSE = 0.98) and XGBoost (R2 = 0.77, RMSE = 0.88). Band combination of NIR + red improved the estimation accuracy in both RF (R2 = 0.87, RMSE = 0.65) and XGBoost (R2 = 0.88, RMSE = 0.63). NDRE and LCI were the first two single VIs for LAI estimation using both RF and XGBoost. However, putting more than one VI together could only increase the LAI estimation accuracy slightly. Meanwhile, the bands + VIs combinations could improve the accuracy in both RF and XGBoost. Our study recommended estimating rice LAI by a combination of red + NIR + OSAVI + NDVI + GNDVI + LCI + NDRE (2B + 5V) with XGBoost to obtain high accuracy and overcome the potential over-fitting issue (R2 = 0.91, RMSE = 0.54).

Area Index

The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is widely used for Leaf Area Index (LAI) estimation. It is well documented that the NDVI is extremely subject to the saturation problem when LAI reaches a high value. A new multi-angular vegetation index, the Hotspot-darkspot Difference Vegetation Index (HDVI) is proposed to estimate the high density LAI. The HDVI, defined as the difference between the hot and dark spot NDVI, relative to the dark spot NDVI, was proposed based on the Analytical two-layer Canopy Reflectance Model (ACRM) model outputs. This index is validated using both in situ experimental data in wheat and data from the multi-angular optical Compact High-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (CHRIS) satellite. Both indices, the Hotspot-Darkspot Index (HDS) and the NDVI were also selected to analyze the relationship with LAI, and were compared with new index HDVI. The results show that HDVI is an appropriate proxy of LAI with higher determination coefficients (R2) for both the data from the in situ experiment (R2=0.7342, RMSE=0.0205) and the CHRIS data (R2=0.7749, RMSE=0.1013). Our results demonstrate that HDVI can make better the occurrence of saturation limits with the information of multi-angular observation, and is more appropriate for estimating LAI than either HDS or NDVI at high LAI values. Although the new index needs further evaluation, it also has the potential under the condition of dense canopies. It provides the effective improvement to the NDVI and other vegetation indices that are based on the red and NIR spectral bands.

Canopy Coverage

Berbak Sembilang National Park of South Sumatra Region (BSNP South Sumatera) is the largest mangrove ecosystem in the western part of Indonesia. Monitoring of mangrove coverage in BSNP South Sumatera carried out using Landsat-8 imagery data based on NDVI values (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) integrated with mangrove LAI (Leaf Area Index) data. The research purpose was to analyze the mangrove coverage and mapping the density of the mangrove vegetation canopy with the integration of remote sensing data and LAI. This research conducted field survey with LAI measurement of mangrove canopy coverage and integrated with remote sensing data to validate map. The determination and correlation coefficient of NDVI and LAI value of canopy coverage was high (R2 = 0.69 ; r = 83.07).The results of research indicated that the overall distribution of the mangrove area was 94,622.05 ha. The NDVI image integration map with LAI resulted in 4 mangrove canopy density classes consisted of rare canopy (688.80 ha ; 0.73%), moderately dense canopy (1,139.55 ha ; 1.2%), dense canopy (35,003.46 ha ; 37%), and very dense canopy (57,790.20 ha ; 61.07%). Taman Nasional Berbak Sembilang wilayah Sumatera Selatan (TNBS Sumsel) merupakan kawasan ekosistem mangrove terluas di wilayah Indonesia bagian barat. Pemantauan kerapatan kanopi vegetasi mangrove di TNBS Sumsel dilakukan menggunakan data Citra Landsat-8 berdasarkan nilai NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) yang diintegrasikan dengan data LAI (Leaf Area Index) mangrove di lapangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tutupan vegetasi mangrove dan memetakan sebaran kerapatan kanopi mangrove dengan integrasi data penginderaan jauh dan LAI. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode pengolahan data survei lapangan dan hasil pengolahan citra satelit. Nilai koefisien determinasi dan korelasi antara nilai NDVI dengan nilai LAI tutupan Kanopi di Lapangan dikategorikan tinggi (R2 = 0,69 ; r = 83,07). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tutupan mangrove secara keseluruhan seluas 94.622,05 ha. Peta integrasi citra NDVI dengan LAI mangrove di lapangan menghasilkan 4 kelas kerapatan kanopi mangrove yakni kanopi jarang seluas 688,80 ha (0,73%), kanopi sedang seluas 1.139,55 ha (1,2%), kanopi lebat seluas 35.003,46 ha (37%), dan kanopi sangat lebat seluas 57.790,20 ha (61,07%).
