In Asia, sand dust storm (SDS) occurs nearly every year, especially in northern China. However, there is less research about the relationship between SDS and greenhouse gases (GHGs). In this paper, we select 4 times of SDS that occurred in the spr...
This study uses a multiple linear regression method to composite standard Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) time series (1982-2009) consisting of three kinds of satellite NDVI data (AVHRR, SPOT, and MODIS). This dataset was combined wi...
