Distribution and structure analysis of mountain permafrost landscape in orulgan ridge (Northeast Siberia) using google earth engine /
An analysis of the landscape spatial structure and diversity in the mountain ranges of Northeast Siberia is essential to assess how tundra and boreal landscapes may respond to climate change and anthropogenic impacts in the vast mountainous permafrost of the Arctic regions. In addition, a precise la...
