Climate warming is leading to rapid changes in land cover types and vegetation biomass in the permafrost regions of the Northern Hemisphere. However, to what extent of the vegetation growth responding to climate change in different permafrost regions and different land cover types regions is still unknown. The spatial-temporal change of normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and its response to climate variables from 2000 to 2021 were analyzed based on Slope trend analysis and Pearson correlation analysis. The results show that about 21. 43% of the NDVI in the permafrost regions shows a significant increasing trend, in which the increasing rates of NDVI in the continuous and discontinuous permafrost regions are 2-3 times higher than that in the sporadic permafrost region. On the monthly scale, about 33. 75% of the NDVI in the permafrost regions shows a significant increasing trend in June, with the fastest increasing rates in continuous permafrost regions and scrub vegetation type regions. Temperature, precipitation and active layer thickness exhibit a significant increasing trend. while snow cover shows a decreasing trend. Warmer temperatures promote vegetation growth in low-latitude permafrost regions such as Russia. Precipitation promotes vegetation growth in some specific arid zones such as Mongolian Plateau, but has a negative effect in the central Russia and the southern Canada. Snowpack promotes vegetation growth in areas with low snow cover, such as the southern Russia, but has a negative effect in areas with high snow cover, such as the Arctic. In general, the vegetation within the permafrost region of the Northern Hemisphere is experiencing an overall growth trend, and that warmer temperatures are still the main controlling factor for vegetation growth in the permafrost region of the Northern Hemisphere. The increase in the active layer thickness contributes to the accelerated growth of vegetation in permafrost regions such as the northern Russia. In addition, the growth of NDVI in different permafrost types exhibits noticeable monthly variations, highlighting the need to consider these differences in future developments and improvements of vegetation models.
