摘要

Natural vegetation and crop-greening patterns in semi-arid savannas are commonly monitored using normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) values from low spatial resolution sensors such as the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) (1 km, 4 km) and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) (250 m, 500 m). However, because semi-arid savannas characteristically have scattered tree cover, the NDVI values at low spatial resolution suffer from the effect of aggregation of near-infrared and red energy from adjacent vegetated and non-vegetated cover types. This effect is seldom taken into consideration or quantified in NDVI analyses of the vegetation of semi-arid lands. This study examined the effect of pixel size on NDVI values of land-cover features for a semi-arid area, using the 1000 m, 250 m and 10 m pixel sizes. A rainy season Systeme Pour l'Observation de la Terre 5 (SPOT 5) High Resolution Geometric (HRG) image at 10 m spatial resolution was utilized. Following radiometric and geometric preprocessing, the 10 m pixel size of the image was aggregated to 250 m and 1000 m to simulate imagery at these pixel sizes, and then NDVI images at the spatial resolution scales of 10 m (NDVI_(10m)), 250 m (NDVI_(250 m)), and 1000 m (NDVIi_(1000M)) derived from the respective images. The simulation of the NDVI_(250 m) image was validated against a concurrent 16 day MODIS NDVI composite (MOD13Q1) image, and the accuracy derived from the validation was generalized to the NDVIiooom image. With change from low to high spatial resolution, extreme magnitude NDVI values shifted towards the centre (mode) of the resulting approximately Gaussian NDVI distributions. There was a statistically significant difference in NDVI values at the three pixel sizes. Low spatial magnitude vegetation sites (woodland, cropland) had reductions of up to 28% in NDVI value between the NDVI_(10m) and NDVI_(1000M) scales. The results indicate that vegetation monitoring using low spatial resolution imagery in semi-arid savannas may only be indicative and needs to be supplemented by higher spatial resolution imagery.
