Abstract

The study of changes in global precipitation patterns is a key element in the ongoing research of climate change. There are also changes that occur over the land surface, such as in vegetation, which are associated with changes in precipitation. However, a better understanding of precipitation- vegetation relationships on various time and space scales is needed.There were many studies on relationship between rainfall to NDVI such as in East Africa1), Bostwana2), Sahel3), Amazon and Northeastern Brazil4), China5), and also in global scale6)7). From those studies, the relation of precipitation and NDVI is complex, such as reported by Kerr8) that its relationship was linear in Senegal, while by Lu5) the relationship was quadratic in China. Additionally, Milich and Weiss3) found that the relationship was inconsistent from the year to the year in Sahel, Africa.Hence, this paper attempts to explore the relationship between climate variables and the vegetation dynamic derived from NOOA/AVHRR-NDVI value, based on either spatial scale or point data. The authors also tried to investigate the possibility to study the global environmental change by using satellite data.

Abstract

Effect of climate change on water balance will play a key role in the biosphere system. To study the global climate change impact on water balance during 95-year period (1901-1995), long-term grid climatic data including global mean monthly temperature and precipitation at 0.5 x 0.5 degree resolution were analysed. The trend and variation of climate change, the time series of monthly air temperature and precipitation data were aggregated into annual arithmetic means for two extreme periods (1901-1920 and 1990-1995). The potential evapotranspiration (Eo) was calculated using Thornthwaite method.The changes in mean annual value were obtained by subtracting the maximum period data from 1990 to 1995 (Max) with the minimum period data from 1901 to 1920 (Min). The results revealed that over 95-year period, mean global air temperature increased by 0.57oC. The temperature increase varied greatly in Asia, with more than 3.0oC, especially at 45-70oN, as well over the northern part of America (60-65oN) and Europe (55- 75oN). In low latitude across Asia, Africa, and South America, the variation was less than 1.5oC. In 80-85ºN region, the variation was relatively small and at higher latitudes it increasedsignificantly. Precipitation varied temporally and spatially. In the 40-45ºN and 40-45ºS regions, increasing precipitation of more than 100 mm occurred during the June-August andSeptember-November, especially in the northern hemisphere. The Eo increase of 2000 mm during 95 years occurred in the tropical northern America, middle Africa, and South-East Asia. A grid in Central Java of Indonesia showed that the Eo increase of 2500 mm during 95 years resulted in the decrease of growing period by 100 days. In coping with climate change, adjustment of cropping calendar is imperative.
