Exploring the spatial relationship between NDVI and rainfall in the semi-arid Sahel with geographically weighted regression
The Normalized Vegetation Difference Index (NDVI) is frequently used as a surrogate for vegetation properties and is often correlated with climatic variables such as rainfall. However, studies have shown that conventional regression models used to study the spatial relationship between NDVI and rainfall are often plagued by non-stationarity and are scale dependent. This thesis employed a spatial d
