Description
Summary:The possibility of using the visualization methods for identify areas of significant climate changes of plant communities in Mezenskaya and Kanin tundra was tested on basis of Modis and Landsat data over the period of 1988-2009 years. The greatest changes in the plant communities for period of twenty years observations were noted at the borders of taliks zone with forming willows, dwarf birch and spruce forests. For the period 2000-2009 years near the 62% of the area characterized as a stable. Weak positive growth index NDVI is marked on 30-34% of the area.
