Mapping and modelling of mountain permafrost distribution in the Alps. Norsk Geogra sk Tidsskrift 50
Field mapping of mountain permafrost is laborious and is generally based on interpolation between point information. A spatial model that is based on elevation and a parameterization of solar radiation during summer is presented here. It allows estimation of permafrost distribution and can be calibr...
