Abstract
The MODIS LAI/FPAR products have been widely used in various fields since their first public release in 2000. This review intends to summarize the history, development trends, scientific collaborations, disciplines involved, and research hotspots of these products. Its aim is to intrigue researchers and stimulate new research direction. Based on literature data from the Web of Science (WOS) and associated funding information, we conducted a bibliometric visualization review of the MODIS LAI/FPAR products from 1995 to 2020 using bibliometric and social network analysis (SNA) methods. We drew the following conclusions: (1) research based on the MODIS LAI/FPAR shows an upward trend with a multiyear average growth rate of 24.9% in the number of publications. (2) Researchers from China and the USA are the backbone of this research area, among which the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) is the core research institution. (3) Research based on the MODIS LAI/FPAR covers a wide range of disciplines but mainly focus on environmental science and ecology. (4) Ecology, crop production estimation, algorithm improvement, and validation are the hotspots of these studies. (5) Broadening the research field, improving the algorithms, and overcoming existing difficulties in heterogeneous surface, scale effects, and complex terrains will be the trend of future research. Our work provides a clear view of the development of the MODIS LAI/FPAR products and valuable information for scholars to broaden their research fields.

期刊介绍:
The predecessor of Journal of Remote Sensing is Remote Sensing of Environment, which was founded in 1986. It was born in the beginning of China's remote sensing career and is the first remote sensing journal that has grown up with the development of China's remote sensing career. Since its inception, the Journal of Remote Sensing has published a large number of the latest scientific research results in China and the results of nationally-supported research projects in the light of the priorities and needs of China's remote sensing endeavours at different times, playing a great role in the development of remote sensing science and technology and the cultivation of talents in China, and becoming the most influential academic journal in the field of remote sensing and geographic information science in China.
As the only national comprehensive academic journal in the field of remote sensing in China, Journal of Remote Sensing is dedicated to reporting the research reports, stage-by-stage research briefs and high-level reviews in the field of remote sensing and its related disciplines with international and domestic advanced level. It focuses on new concepts, results and progress in this field. It covers the basic theories of remote sensing, the development of remote sensing technology and the application of remote sensing in the fields of agriculture, forestry, hydrology, geology, mining, oceanography, mapping and other resource and environmental fields as well as in disaster monitoring, research on geographic information systems (GIS), and the integration of remote sensing with GIS and the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and its applications.
