Changing landscape in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area of Yangtze River from 1977 to 2005: land use/land cover, vegetation cover changes estimated using multi-source satellite data.

TLDR
It is concluded that significant changes in land use/land cover have occurred in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area and the main cause is a continuous economic and urban/rural development, followed by environmental management policies after construction of the Three gorges Dam.

On the relation between NDVI, fractional vegetation cover, and leaf area index

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple radiative transfer model with vegetation, soil, and atmospheric components is used to illustrate how the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), leaf area index (LAI), and fractional vegetation cover are dependent.
