Abstract

In order to understand, identify and quantify the climatic effects on the regional ecosystems, the relation between climate parameters and the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NVDI) was studied. For this purpose, the yearly precipitation and net radiation, which are output parameters of the weather prediction model RACMO, were used. The Harmonic ANalysis of Time Series (HANTS) algorithm was used to analyze the data. The HANTS algorithm perfectly described the temporal behavior of land surface parameters.
