The spatial NDVI is extracted for the summer and winter months, November and June, respectively, to see the seasonal NDVI at each catchment. The results show that the Mount Wilson site (~35°S) has higher NDVI values than the Risdon Hill site throughout the year though receiving similar annual precipitation. It is observed that the Mount Wilson site shows approximately similar NDVI on NFS and SFS in the austral summer period. However, in the winter season when seasonal total precipitation exceeds total PET demand, the NDVI on NFS is comparatively higher than on SFS, which is attributed to differences in vegetation phenology on opposing hillslopes and relatively more incoming solar radiation on NFS than SFS. On the other hand, the site at Risdon Hills (~42°S) has relatively lower range of NDVI at both NFS and SFS, and NDVI at NFS and SFS does not vary noticeably. Further, the spatial NDVI patterns at both locations also illustrate similar behaviour, following the temporal patterns at both locations.]]> Thu 29 Jun 2023 15:06:34 AEST ]]>
