Kurzfassung
The aim of the BMBF-funded research project CONCERT is to identify emission mitigation options for the major greenhouse gases (GHG), in parallel with improving food security in West Africa. This will be achieved – among others – through the estimation and projection of GHG emission budgets for the region using a fully-coupled regional Earth System Model (ESM), specifically adapted to the WASCAL region. Science-based information for adaptive land management requires quantification of vegetation parameters at stand-scales, and updated high-resolution land cover and vegetation maps to upscale measured GHG fluxes to country-scales. For reliable ESM predictions of future GHG budgets and crop productivity, we need to improve our understanding of the spatial pattern and temporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in West Africa. Although various LULC datasets exist at global and continental scales, they are often coarse in spatial and temporal resolution and poorly describe the thematic, temporal, and spatial patterns in the heterogeneous savanna landscapes. Here, we assess time series of the leaf area index (LAI) based on earth observation data at different spatial and temporal resolutions. Machine Learning methods allow to fill gaps in the spatial and temporal domains in order to compute dense time series and assess vegetation dynamics. Time series of Sentinel-2-based LAI allow to detect multiple growing cycles with specific magnitudes and provides structural information of vegetation as an important input of ESM.
