CKGR Lion Research Appendix 2 NDVI

For ANU Research Thesis entitled : The Ecology and Management of Kalahari Lions in a Conflict Area in Central Botswana.


The moving image shown below is a way of visualising the variation in NDVI through the timeframe of the project (February 2009-November 2012). Green is higher values of NDVI through orange to lower values of NDVI.

Study Area NDVI over time
Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data from the MODIS MYD13A collection were acquired from the USGS collection. The NDVI is retrieved from near daily imagery on-board NASA’s Terra and Aqua satellites by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer. By leveraging the strong absorption of red light but reflectance of near-infra-red by productive vegetation, the index has proven a useful measure of gross primary productivity During this study, the value of this unitless index varied from 2040 (Red) coinciding with dry periods with no surface water and brown vegetation, to a value of 4330 (Green) which correlated green vegetation and a productive time of year, see Figure 2.4. Herbivores are expected to respond strongly to vegetative productivity, and lions in turn will respond to herbivores.
