Estimation of forest properties in a treeline zone using TanDEM-X and airborne laser scanning data
The high-latitude forest-tundra transitional zone is a region which is highly vulnerable to the current Arctic warming. The local changes accompanying expected northward migration of the treeline requires systematic monitoring. We focus on an area in the east of the Mackenzie Delta in Northwest Terr...
