Relationships between vegetation types and soil properties along a topographical gradient on the northern coast of the Brgger Peninsula, Svalbard
Vegetation patterns in the high Arctic vary not only with proglacial chronosequence but also with a topographical gradient on older deglaciated areas which are covered by mature vegetation. A preliminary survey of local scale vegetation patterns along a topographical gradient with special reference...
