Abstract: Vegetation phenology is an important sensor that responds to environmental changes. Based on MOD13Q1 EVI data, we used the dynamic threshold method to extract vegetation phenological parameters of the central Yunnan urban agglomeration from 2001 to 2020, namely the start of growing season, the end of growing season, and the length of growing season, aiming to reveal the spatiotemporal variations in vegetation phenology and urban-rural differences. The results showed that vegetation phenology of the central Yunnan urban agglomeration from 2001 to 2020 generally showed a phenomenon of delayed start of growing season, delayed the end of growing season (0.66 days per year), and prolonged growing season. Compared with suburban and rural areas, growing season in urban areas in the past 20 years had started earlier (1.05 days per year), ended later (0.91 days per year), and thus growing season had been prolonged (1.79 days per year). Vegetation phenology showed significant difference on the gradient of urban, suburban, and rural areas. The start and the end of growing season of urban vegetation were the earliest, and the length of growing season was the longest, with the most significant changes in the urban areas and within the range of 0-2 km outward. The start of growing season in urban area was significantly earlier, the end of growing season was significantly delayed, and length of growing season was prolonged significantly with the increase of population density, per capita GDP, and the proportion of built-up area. The sensitivity of different phenological periods of vegetation and their duration to environmental changes varied on the gradient of urban, suburban and rural areas. Population density and proportion of built-up area in the study area played an important role in delaying the end of growing season of vegetation in the central Yunnan urban agglomeration.
