| description | Vegetation plays a vital role in connecting ecosystems and climate features. The biodiversity of vegetation is one of the most important features for evaluating ecosystems and it is becoming increasingly important with the threat of global warming. To clarify the effects of climate change on forest biodiversity in Northeast China, time-series NDVI data, meteorological data and land cover data from 2010 to 2021 were acquired, and the forest biodiversity of Northeast China was evaluated. The effect of climate change on forest biodiversity was analyzed, and the results indicated that the forest biodiversity features increased from west to east in Northeast China. There was also an increasing trend from 2010 to 2021, but the rate at which forest biodiversity was changing varied with different forest types of Northeast China, as different climatic factors had a different impact on forest biodiversity in different forest types. Average annual temperature, annual accumulated precipitation, CO<sub>2</sub> fertilization and solar radiation were the main factors affecting forest biodiversity changing trends. This research indicated the potential impact of climate change on forest ecosystems, as it emphasized with evidence that climate change has a catalytic effect on forest biodiversity in Northeast China. |
