The impact of outliers on the trend analysis. The complexity of factors influencing ecosystem quality, including saturated water vapor pressure, soil moisture, actual evapotranspiration, and other climatic elements. The need for a comprehensive quantitative examination of the mutual contributions posed by climatic factors and human activities towards shifts in ecosystem quality.
