ECOSYSTEM MONITORING DEVELOPMENT IN THE EUROPEAN RUSSIAN TUNDRA BASED ON SAR/ERS DATA

The possibility of application ERS-2 SAR for monitoring of Russian European tundra ecosystem components was investigated. The synergetic using of SAR with Landsat data can be widely used for investigation and mapping of tundra vegetation, soils, for the ecosystem monitoring of anthropogenic effects.
