A statistical model for automated mapping of the spatial distribution of permafrost in the area of Corral del Veleta in south-east Spain (37°03′N. 3°22′W: 3398 m a.s.l.) was developed and applied. The model uses a relationship between permafrost occurrence as indicated by BTS measurements, and varia...
