Review and tendency of net primary productivity study

LI Gao-fei, Yan Li, Jiang Liu

Abstract

Annual net primary productivity (NPP) of terrestrial vegetation is the net amount of carbon fixed by plant photosynthesis. NPP is an important index in global change ecology. The history of NPP research is reviewed in this paper, and the applications of RS and GIS technology for measuring NPP in larger scale is discussed. This review also concludes about the characteristics and tendency of NPP research in recent.
