Vegetation growth in northeastern China has been changing over the past 30 years, with the growing season starting earlier and ending later in the southeast compared to the north. By analyzing temperature data and satellite images, researchers found that the growing season duration has increased in the northern high latitudes. This information is crucial for managing ecosystems in response to climate variations.
