Opportunities to use remote sensing in understanding permafrost and related ecological characteristics : report of a workshop /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

Permafrost is a thermal condition -- its formation, persistence and disappearance are highly dependent on climate. General circulation models predict that, for a doubling of atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, mean annual air temperatures may rise up to several degrees over much of the Arc...
