Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF), when used as a proxy for plant photosynthesis, can provide an indication of the photosynthesis rate and has the potential to improve our understanding of carbon exchange mechanisms within an ecosystem. However, the relationships between SIF and vegetation indices (VIs) operating within different ecological contexts and the effect of other environmental factors on SIF remain unclear. This study focused on three ecosystems (cropland, forest, and grassland), with different ecological characteristics, located in Northeast China. These areas provide case studies where numerous relationships can be explored, including the correlations between the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) SIF and MODIS products, meteorological factors, and the differences in the relationships between the three different ecosystems. Some interesting results and conclusions were obtained. First, in different ecosystems, the relationships between SIF and MODIS products show different correlations, whereby the enhanced vegetation index (EVI) has a close relationship with SIF in all the three ecosystems of forest, cropland, and grassland. Second, forest-type ecosystems appear to be sensitive to changes in daily temperature, whereas cropland and grassland areas respond more closely to changes in previous 16-day daily minimum temperature. Compared with forest and cropland areas, grasslands were more sensitive to precipitation (although the R2 value was small). Third, different ecosystems have different mechanisms of photosynthesis. Hence, we suggest that it is better to use SIF in areas exhibiting different ecological characteristics, and different models should be employed while simulating SIF.
