Energy and water vapour fluxes in the arctic tundra landscape: how can SAR data facilitate upscaling?

Energy and water vapour fluxes are important factors for the understanding of terrestrial ecosystems. While meteorological measurements provide necessary information for selected locations, an upscaling of the fluxes requires additional information, especially for heterogeneous environments like the...
