“…Recent studies demonstrated that the green‐red vegetation index (GRVI) is suitable for capturing phenological variations (Yin et al., 2020, 2022). Unlike other VIs that only characterize vegetation structure, GRVI has a high correlation with leaf pigment pools (Yin et al., 2022), which is crucial in determining the maximum leaf photosynthetic capacity and consequently has an impact on photosynthesis (Nagai et al., 2012, 2014). Finally, solar‐induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF), as a by‐product of photosynthesis, is the re‐emission of a fraction of solar radiation absorbed by chlorophyll molecules (usually around 1%) and has recently been detected by remote sensing technology (Guanter et al., 2021; Joiner et al., 2013; Y. Zhang, Joiner, Alemohammad, Zhou, & Gentine, 2018).…”
