Terrestrial Remote Sensing of Snowmelt in a Diverse High-Arctic Tundra Environment Using Time-Lapse Imagery

Daniel Kępski, Bartłomiej Luks, Krzysztof Migała, Tomasz Wawrzyniak et al. • Remote Sensing (2017)

Snow cover is one of the crucial factors influencing the plant distribution in harsh Arctic regions. In tundra environments, wind redistribution of snow leads to a very heterogeneous spatial distribution which influences growth conditions f...
