This study uses the MOderate Resolution Image Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Vegetation Continuous Fields (VCF) data to investigate the relationship between the dynamics of the circumarctic latitudinal forest-tundra ecotones (FTEs) and its spatial configuration. This study also explores the extent to which the Google Earth Engine (GEE) can enable efficient, large-scale and multi-temporal examination of the circumarctic FTE. FTE dynamics is represented by latitudinal interface movement over the 2000 to 2015 period. To represent spatial configuration of the latitudinal FTEs, we propose a continuous measurement of fragmentation derived from window spectral analysis, which builds on the theory of FTE ‘forms’ – a discrete categorisation of altitudinal FTEs primarily based on vegetation fragmentation. Additionally, continentality of the FTEs is calculated to investigate the impact of water variability.
