Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] As a core index in global carbon cycle, vegetation GPP directly reflects the carbon sequestration capacity of an ecological system and is an important basis for carbon cycle model research. Accurate quantification of GPP is of great significance for in-depth understanding of the mechanism of carbon flux in a terrestrial ecological system. GPP models based on light energy utilization rate have become mainstream tools for large-scale carbon cycle simulation driven by remote sensing due to their clear physiological and ecological basis and process algorithm characteristics. Among them, the VPM model simplifies the structure of the LUE model through equivalent substitution of stress factors, has a lower application threshold among numerous LUE models, and can make full use of remote sensing data. However, from the application effect in existing research, the accuracy of the VPM model in many scenarios still needs to be improved. In the real and variable environment background, water, temperature, and phenology cannot effectively reflect the changes in the environment. For example, the model significantly underestimates the GPP in grassland and farmland ecological systems (relative error > 20%), and there is a large difference between the estimated GPP product and the eddy correlation flux observation value.
