Abstract

Taking Mongolia plateau as a study area, make use of the temperature and vegetation products of the EOS/MODIS data to calculate four index they are vegetation condition index (VCI) and temperature condition index (TCI) and vegetation health index (VHI) andÿvegetation supply water indexÿ(VSWI). Mapped the Mongolia plateau for 2003-2013 growing season (from May to September) time and space distribution of drought. SPSS software is used to analyze the various index and the correlation between the soil moisture measured data, so as to choose the most suitable for remote sensing monitoring index of drought Mongolia plateau. The results showed: VHI and VSWI index relative to other two indexes is applicable to the Mongolian plateau drought monitoring.
