Climate change detection over different land surface vegetation classes
A global land cover classification data set is used to partition the globe into seven regions to study surface temperature changes over different vegetation/surface classes. Statistically significant warming is found from the year 1900 over all regions (except for the ice sheets over Greenland and A...
