英文摘要 | Trends of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) from 1982 to 2006 in the upper mountainous areas of three inland river basins (Shiyanghe, Heihe, and Shulehe, from east to west) in the Qilian Mountains, northwestern China, were analyzed based on the Global Inventory Monitoring and Modeling Studies (GIMMS) NDVI data. The relationships between NDVI and climatic factors such as air temperature, precipitation, and evaporation were also analyzed. The results indicate that changes of NDVI over time had an obvious elevational difference. NDVI has decreased in the northern lower-elevation (<3000 m) areas, which account for 31% of the total area, and increased in the southern higher-elevation (3000-4100 m) areas, which occupy 32% of the total area. In addition, 37% of the area did not show an obvious change in NDVI and was distributed in the periglacial belts with elevations higher than 4100 m. The decrease of NDVI in the lower elevations was controlled by a decrease in precipitation and an increase in air temperatures, whereas the increase in the higher elevations was mainly controlled by an increase in air temperature alone. With a continuous increase in air temperature in the future, vegetation would suffer from more serious water stress in the elevations lower than 3000 m, but become more flourishing between 3000 and 4100 m in the Qilian Mountains. This information is critical for understanding how climate warming may affect hydrology and ecology in the Qilian Mountains and for managing water resources for the lowlands in the Hexi Corridor adjacent to the mountains. |
