  ABSTRACT: Currently, global warming has a significant impact on snow and vegetation in mid to high latitude regions. This paper primarily utilizes Fractional Vegetation Cover (FVC), snow phenological parameters, including the Start of Snow Cover Days (SCS), Melt of Snow Cover Days (SCM), and Snow Cover Days (SCD), complemented by soil temperature and moisture data. Employing partial correlation analysis, it was found that in this region, SCD is most closely associated with FVC. FVC was most strongly correlated with SCD and SCM. Additionally, the impact of snow cover on FVC is primarily reflected in temperature and moisture. The study’s findings offer new insights into snow phenology and the growth of grasslands.
