The NDVI quantifies photosynthetic potential of vegetation using satellite-measured reflected radiances in the infrared and red wavelengths [25], [26]. We calculated monthly and seasonal NDVI and LST anomalies by expressing differences between current and mean 2000–2011 NDVI values. NDVI anomalies are expressed as percentage departures, and LST anomalies are absolute departures from long-term means.
