Monitoring grassland resource dynamics is of great significance for its rational utilization and ecologi- cal construction. This study selected fractional vegetation cover and above-ground biomass of grassland in Qinghai province as indicators. NDVI,annual precipitation,average annual temperature from August 2010 to 2018,and the above-ground biomass data measured 2015 and 2017 were used to simulate the trend of the spatial and temporal varia- tion of fractional vegetation cover. The correlation between fractional vegetation coverage and climatic factors was analysed to find a inversion model to simulate its spatial and temporal variation trend. The results showed that:(1) In the recent 9 years,the average fractional vegetation cover of Qinghai province showed an extremely significant downward trend (P<0. 05),and the average above -ground biomass showed an increasing trend.(2) The fractional vegetation cover in 16. 90% regions of Qinghai province decreased very significantly (P<0. 01) and 15. 42% regions decreased significantly (P<0. 05). By contrastonly 0. 94% regions increased very significantly (P<0. 01) and1. 43% regions increased significantly (P<0. 05).(3) The annual precipitation and the average annual tempera- ture showed a fluctuating upward trend in the past 9 years with a negative synergy between years.(4) About 20% re- gions of Qinghai province showed weak correlation between average fractional vegetation and annual precipitation or annual temperature (P<0. 1).(5) The exponential model y=496. 21e2. 4497x was the optimal model for above-ground biomass inversion in Qinghai province (R2 =0. 42,P<0. 01).(6) The maximum decreasing trend of above -ground biomass was 276. 71 kg/hm2 ,and the maximum increasing trend was 544. 68 kg/hm2 ,the proportions were 69. 18% and 30. 82% respectively. It was concluded that grassland resources in Qinghai province were gradually recovering, and its change was closely related to human activities.
