Contribution of Environment Factors to the Temperature Distribution According to Different Resolution Levels; Test on the Forefield of the Loven Glaciers (Svalbard)
The temperature distribution is controlled by numerous factors related to topography (such as altitude, gradient, slope facing, landforms) and land cover (such as vegetation, bare ground, water). Additional elements worth to be considered like distance to significant objects like sea, crest lines or...
